Hexagon Purus has been selected as a partner by North America’s largest provider of mass mobility solutions, New Flyer of America Inc. and New Flyer Canada ULC (collectively “New Flyer”), for the second year in a row.

In 2022, Hexagon Purus will supply New Flyer with high-pressure hydrogen storage cylinders for its zero-emission Xcelsior CHARGE H2TM hydrogen fuel cell electric transit buses. The total value of the contract is around USD 2 million (approximately NOK 18 million).

Energy transition at the helm

New Flyer is a pioneer in zero-emission transportation in North America, establishing sustainable buses and infrastructure in cities around the United States and Canada. Hexagon Purus supplied hydrogen cylinders/systems for roughly 30 New Flyer fuel cell buses in 2021 alone.

The Xcelsior CHARGE H2 is equipped with lightweight Type 4 hydrogen storage cylinders from Hexagon Purus, which enables a driving range of up to 350 miles/560 kilometers on a single fill.

“With over 50 years of experience manufacturing zero-emission transit buses, our Xcelsior CHARGE H2 bus is a game changer for North American operators. Not only does it reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but it also delivers extended range, fast fill times, and no reduction in performance from beginning to end of life,” says Ben Wood, Vice President Supply Management at New Flyer. “Hexagon Purus is helping us in our efforts to transition North American mobility toward a more sustainable future.”

“New Flyer and Hexagon Purus share a common vision and purpose – to drive the energy transition and accelerate the adoption of clean transportation. The zero-emission momentum created by New Flyer is undeniable,” says Jim Harris, Vice President LDC North America Operations, Hexagon Purus. “Hexagon Purus and New Flyer have been working together since 2015. We are proud to enable the company’s long-range hydrogen fuel cell-electric buses and we look forward to continuing to support the expansion of New Flyer’s carbon-free footprint in North America.”

Hexagon Purus’ hydrogen cylinders are part of a global product line for the medium and heavy-duty fuel cell vehicle industry. The cylinders, which are certified for use in North America and Europe, store hydrogen at a pressure of 350 bar and are specifically built for use by fuel cell buses. The cylinders are made in Maryland at Hexagon Purus’ North American manufacturing facility.
