Fuel cell or battery? RWTH Aachen now has the usual question about the best technology for zero-emissions trucks “Both” answered. the chair Production engineering for e-mobility components He has one prototype that has been converted to an electric motor Offer heavy truck with fuel cell to extend range. Project part SeLv It is assumed that the developed technology will allow the 41-ton trucks to have a range of up to 1,000 kilometers in the future. However, the show wagon still lacks a fuel cell and tank system, both of which will be integrated in the next development stage. This subview should also handle this the moon Post founded in the chair.

“When it comes to electrification of commercial vehicles with high demands in terms of range and payload, there is no way to beat hydrogen. Concrete implementation projects are required for the successful manufacture of this technology. With the SeLv project, we are setting the starting point for this.”Achim Kamker, Head of Production Engineering for Electronic Mobility Components (PEM) at RWTH University Aachen explains.

The project SeLv It is funded by the Ministry of Economy of about 17 million euros and will initially run until October next year.
