Conference Summary
Hydrogen for Sustainable Mobility Forum
Organized by SAE Torino and Converge CFD. Held at Politecnico di Torino, Italy 12th March, 2025
There is a lot of momentum across the world on the potential use of green hydrogen as a fuel for reducing dependence on conventional fossil fuel. Hydrogen, coupled with either fuel cell vehicles or a combustion engine, is seen as a pathway for decarbonizing transport, especially in the heavy-duty vehicle and off-road equipment sectors.
The “Hydrogen for Sustainable Mobility Forum” conference held in Turin, focused on the latest developments and challenges facing this technology. Talks covered a broad range of topics, ranging from engine technologies and emissions control, to fuel and infrastructure developments and lifecycle considerations.
The chart here is a summary that was presented by MobilityNotes – it shows the H2 capacity on board some of the announced trucks (data taken from individual websites) and the nominal range. A linear fit through the data shows that these trucks consume ~ 9 kg-H2/100km.
