Ballard Power Systems has announced orders for 70 hydrogen fuel cell bus engines to be delivered to Wrightbus in 2024.
The FCmove-HD hydrogen fuel cell engines have been ordered through multiple purchase orders.
They will be used in single- and double-decker Wrightbus vehicles being manufactured for customers across the UK and Germany.
“We are pleased to strengthen our relationship with Wrightbus and support their deployment of an increasing volume of hydrogen-powered transit buses across the UK and Europe. “We are seeing broader market acceptance of fuel cell buses by European transit operators seeking to decarbonise their operations with a technology approach that enables long range, fast refuelling, and scalable refuelling infrastructure.”
The fuel cell engines are scheduled for delivery in 2024, prior to the buses entering service in 2025.
