The AGV H2 follows the launch of GAUSSIN’s
hydrogen-powered fuel cell ATM and APM vehicles
GAUSSIN (EURONEXT GROWTH ALGAU - FR0013495298), a pioneer in
the clean and intelligent transport of goods and people,
announces the launch of the world's first
hydrogen-powered fuel cell Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV H2) for
seaports. These new vehicles complement GAUSSIN’s range of
hydrogen-powered vehicles following the release of the
hydrogen-powered fuel cell ATM and APM. The AGV can be autonomously
driven in infra-structureless and mixed traffic environment. It
will help port operators switch to zero-emission immediately and
provide longer operating hours, shorter and less frequent
refuelling, as well as quiet and efficient transportation.
GAUSSIN’s state-of-the-art, complementary solution for port
operators
Ports traditionally rely on diesel-powered trucks and tractors
operating in a cluster environment are involved in moving cargo to
and from ships. This contributes significantly to CO2 emissions.
Many feasibility studies have shown that ports are ideal locations
for hydrogen-powered transport trucks and container handling
equipment as they are a natural place for hydrogen transportation,
storage, and refuelling sites for various applications. With
hydrogen production costs dropping more than 50% since 2015,
hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles are now a viable solution for
port operators to meet both the operation efficiency and green
targets.
A new vehicle with strong performances
The H2 AGV shows strong and distinctive performance, which are
detailed below:
Application: Containers Payload: 65t Maximum
speed: 25 km/h Drive line: 4x4 Front axle
capacity: 50t Rear axle capacity: 50t Traction
motor: 2*226kW permanent magnet Fuel Cell: 45kW H2
tank capacity: 20kg @350bar Battery capacity: 60kwh
Autonomy with H2: 15 hours Additional autonomy with
Batteries: 3 hours
“Once again, we are expanding our range of hydrogen-powered fuel
cell products to support the zero-emission drive in the port
sector. We believe our H2 AGV will contribute significantly to the
operation efficiency expected in this demanding environment,” said
Christophe Gaussin, CEO of GAUSSIN.
