Cummins and Terex Advance, have joined forces to introduce hydrogen internal combustion engines (ICE) into Terex’s Commander Series. This collaboration aims to address emissions reduction and provide a viable, zero-carbon fuel option for the demanding world of concrete mixer trucks.

A Paradigm Shift in Concrete Mixer Technology

Concrete mixer trucks are known for their rigorous duty cycles and challenging terrains. These workhorses of the construction industry typically rely on diesel engines to power their operations. However, Cummins plans to introduce its X15H hydrogen ICE into Terex’s Commander Series, marking a substantial shift in the industry.

The X15H represents a fusion of traditional combustion engine technology with the promise of hydrogen. What sets it apart is its seamless integration into the existing truck chassis, requiring no major overhaul of vehicle design or operational processes. This transition to hydrogen ICE offers the potential for significant reductions in carbon emissions without compromising the performance required for heavy-duty applications.

A Game-Changer for Emissions Reduction

One of the critical driving forces behind this collaboration is the need to reduce emissions in the concrete mixing industry. As global environmental concerns intensify, the demand for eco-friendly alternatives in construction is growing stronger.

Hydrogen ICEs provide a practical solution to meet the EPA’s proposed greenhouse gas Phase 3 standards while still delivering the robust performance demanded by vocational applications. This collaboration between Cummins and Terex Advance aligns with the industry’s commitment to sustainability and emissions reduction.

The Impressive X15H

Cummins unveiled the X15H at the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo in May 2023, along with a hydrogen ICE-powered concept truck. The X15H boasts a 700-bar pressure 80kg capacity hydrogen storage system, granting it a remarkable range of over 500 miles and a substantial power output of up to 500 horsepower.

Jim Nebergall, General Manager at Cummins Hydrogen Engine Business, emphasized the potential of hydrogen ICEs in the heavy-duty sector. He stated, “Hydrogen ICEs provide a viable zero-carbon fuel option for heavy-duty, high-performance applications like concrete mixer trucks, which are often subject to arduous duty-cycles and tough terrain.”

David Grabner, General Manager at Terex Advance, echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the urgency of emissions reduction in response to global environmental imperatives. “As the global need to reduce emissions becomes stronger, we are actively pursuing practical, cost-effective strategies to help our ready-mix customers decarbonize,” Grabner said.
