Conference Summary
ACT 2024 In Pictures
Advanced Clean Transportation Expo, Las Vegas, May 20 – 23, 2024
The ACT Expo covers all aspects of the latest technologies for commercial vehicles. Participants from a wide array of stakeholders attend – regulators, OEMs, suppliers, fleet owners, infrastructure developers, utilities etc. – providing a unique forum to discuss the “reality” on the ground for the energy transition that is happening, and to show off upcoming technologies at various levels of maturity.
Here are some pictures from the exhibition floor to give an overview of the breadth of technologies discussed.
This does not do justice to the content, however, as we do not cover the excellent talks and panel discussions held in various sessions. A summary of the technical discussions and key takeaways will be provided to MobilityNotes members.
High-speed charging
Speaking of infrastructure, high-speed DC chargers are available are ready for deployment at truck stops (various speakers discussed learnings from recent demonstration projects). The key challenge is to get the power required to these charging points in a reasonable timeframe.
Hydrogen
Hydrogen powered trucking is catching up. Several fuel cell packs displayed, along with a fueling station and of course, fuel cell trucks.
Also being developed are H2 powered internal combustion engines. On display was the H2-ICE engine and demonstration truck.
