a hydrogen powered truck has just
0:04
shattered World Records traveling an
0:07
1,86 Mi on a single tank of fuel this
0:11
groundbreaking achievement belongs to
0:13
the H2 rescue truck a prototype
0:16
heavyduty vehicle designed to address
0:18
energy challenges during disaster relief
0:20
the H2 rescue truck was built by
0:22
accelera a division of Cummings with
0:25
support from the US Department of energy
0:27
and other federal agencies what makes
0:30
this feat truly remarkable is its
0:32
environmental impact while a traditional
0:35
internal combustion engine would have
0:37
emitted 664 lb of carbon dioxide over
0:41
the same distance the H2 rescue truck
0:43
produced zero emissions at the heart of
0:46
this Innovative vehicle is a hydrogen
0:48
fuel cell not a hydrogen combustion
0:50
engine this fuel cell battery hybrid
0:53
generates electricity from hydrogen to
0:56
power its electric motor making it a
0:58
highly efficient and sustainable
1:00
solution the truck is equipped with a
1:02
Cummins accelera fuel cell engine and a
1:05
250 KW traction motor during its record
1:08
setting trip it consumed 168 kg of
1:11
hydrogen from an onboard storage of 175
1:15
kg but the H2 rescue truck is more than
1:18
just a long-distance performer it's an
1:21
essential tool during emergencies
1:23
capable of providing 25 KW of power for
1:26
critical relief operations such as
1:28
lighting medical equipment M and
1:30
communication systems for up to 72 hours
1:33
without refueling this capability could
1:35
make a significant difference in
1:36
disaster zones where reliable energy
1:39
sources are often scarce the H2 rescue
1:42
trucks achievement adds to a growing
1:43
list of Records set by hydrogen powered
1:46
vehicles worldwide for example Toyota's
1:49
Mirai sedan traveled 845 M on a single
1:52
tank of hydrogen in real world driving
1:55
conditions in California in the rail
1:57
sector sters flirt h 2 hydrogen train
2:01
recently set a Guinness World Record by
2:05
17417 Mi on a single tank of fuel these
2:09
records underscore hydrogen's
2:11
versatility as a clean energy source
2:14
with applications ranging from personal
2:16
cars to heavyduty trucks and trains each
2:20
achievement serves as proof that
2:21
hydrogen Technologies can compete with
2:24
and sometimes surpass the performance
2:26
and convenience of traditional fossil
2:28
fuel powered vehicles the H2 rescue
2:31
truck is designed to address specific
2:33
challenges during natural disasters
2:35
military operations and utility outages
2:38
it offers an opportunity to reduce
2:40
Reliance on diesel fuel during Disaster
2:43
Response efforts replacing traditional
2:45
vehicles with hydrogen powerered
2:47
Alternatives can displace
2:49
1,825 Gall of fuel annually and reduce
2:53
emissions by roughly 2.5 metric tons per
2:55
truck looking Beyond emergency response
2:59
hydrogen fuel cell technology has
3:00
significant potential for decarbonizing
3:03
the freight military and utility
3:06
Industries heavyduty Vehicles which are
3:09
among the largest contributors to
3:11
Transportation emissions are ideal
3:13
candidates for hydrogen Solutions l hole
3:16
trucks could leverage the extended range
3:18
that hydrogen offers minimizing the need
3:20
for refueling stops while lowering
3:22
carbon dioxide emissions the success of
3:25
the H2 rescue truck also highlights the
3:27
need for further investment in hydrogen
3:30
infrastructure expanding the network of
3:32
hydrogen refueling stations could make
3:34
this fuel source more accessible for
3:36
both commercial and personal use
3:39
potentially accelerating adoption and
3:41
Paving the way for a broader shift
3:43
toward cleaner Transportation Systems
3:46
the H2 rescue trucks record-breaking
3:48
achievement is not just a landmark for
3:50
hydrogen fueled Innovation it's a
3:53
glimpse into what the future of
3:54
sustainable Transportation could look
3:56
like by proving that hydrogen Vehicles
3:59
can deliver on performance reliability
4:01
and environmental benefits this
4:03
breakthrough challenges the dominance of
4:05
fossil fuels and opens new possibilities
4:09
applications while there's still work to
4:12
be done in scaling infrastructure and
4:13
lowering costs the potential of hydrogen
4:16
powered Technologies like the H2 rescue
4:19
undeniable these Innovations have the
4:21
power to help us build a cleaner more
