Volvo Launches 3 new massive electric truck-models for heavy duty uses representing 2/3 of sales

https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/volvo-launches-3-new-massive-electric-truck-models-for-heavy-duty-uses-representing-2-3-of-companys-sales/

Imagine a truck that only emits water vapor, produces its own electricity onboard and has a range of up to 600 miles.

Volvo have made it possible with fuel cells powered by hydrogen, and during this summer they started to test a new line of trucks using this technology.

Volvo Trucks is beginning series production of the electric versions of the company’s most important product range, its heavy-duty trucks: Volvo FH, Volvo FM and Volvo FMX. These trucks can operate at a total weight of 44 tons and the three models represent around two-thirds of the company’s sales.

We have been developing this technology for some years now, and it feels great to see the first trucks successfully running on the test track,” said Roger Alm, President of Volvo Trucks division.

“The combination of battery electric and fuel cell electric will enable our customers to completely eliminate CO2 exhaust emissions from their trucks, no matter transport assignments. This is a milestone and proves that we are leading a milestone and proves that we are leading the transformation of the industry.”

The fuel cell electric trucks will have an operational range comparable to many diesel trucks—up to 600 miles (1,000 km)—and a refueling time of less than 15 minutes. The total weight can be around 65 tons or even higher, and the two fuel cells have the capacity to generate 300 kW of electricity onboard.

I wonder how many "Americans" know what " Fascism" is, let alone know what it looks like?

As a high school teacher (now retired) I spent a week talking about the "Rise of Fascism."
Also showed the film, "Night and Fog" about the Holocaust. No doubt the most horrific film
I have ever seen, and that film is totally real & truthful.

About a Classic Film..."One Who Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.." .....

....That film, although it won awards, was the 2nd most depressing film I have ever seen. And I saw it more than
once cause it won those awards. It still depressed the hell of me. Even thinking about it is upsetting.

The single most depressing film I have ever seen is now up on Democratic Underground'' post 8 at this link:

You are warned if you watch this film, you will be very depressed, it is real and truthful history

About Stuart G

I thought I knew a lot, and I found out... how little I knew about what I know. And how much more there is to learn, if I listen and read what others have to say.
