Nuvera Fuel Cells and Urban Mobility Systems for Zero-Emission Vehicles and Equipment in Europe
BILLERICA MA / ACCESSWIRE January 12, 2023 Nuvera Fuel Cells, LLC, a supplier of heavy-duty hydrogen fuel cells engines for both on- and offroad mobility, has signed a memorandum with a Dutch-based clean technology engineering firm. Urban Mobility Systems (UMS). The MOU covers the initial sales Nuvera® E-Series Fuel Cell Engines UMS and an agreement for UMS to explore the sale, development and support of commercially-useable standardized zero emission fuel cell powertrains. UMS and Nuvera will collaborate closely on the development, testing and deployment of Nuvera’s 125 kW fuel cells engine.
Lucien Robroek, CEO of Nuvera, says that Nuvera’s fuel cell engines are perfect for many zero emission applications that require extended range and quick refueling. “UMS and Nuvera share the same vision of ‘just getting it done.’ UMS has a proven track record of building and developing certified electric platforms for demanding customers. These platforms can be used not only as prototypes, but also as first production series for challenging industrial applications.
Lucien Robroek, CEO of Nuvera Fuel Cells (L), and Lars Kool, CEO of UMS (R).
Lars Kool, UMS CEO, says that “At Urban Mobility Systems, we take great pride and in solid electrification options that can be built or deployed efficiently in on and off-road vehicle.” Fuel cell capability can be added to many applications where battery power is insufficient or not practical. Nuvera has access to the best technology in series-produced fuel cells engines. UMS’s strategy to bring modern electrification options to market in a very short time frame is perfectly supported by this product’s availability.
Powered by hydrogen, Nuvera® fuel cell products are integrated into electric powertrains for material handling and port equipment, buses, trucks, stationary equipment and maritime vessels. The Nuvera E-Series fuel cell engines provide the same functionality and interfaces as mechanical drivetrains powered with diesel internal combustion engines.
Nuvera is working with Urban Mobility Systems to increase its European presence and global capability to electrify vehicles using advanced fuel cell technology.
