Hydrogen Trucks Pioneer Quieter Era in Urban Logistics

Fraunhofer Institute is shedding light on the potential acoustic transformation brought about by hydrogen-powered heavy goods vehicles. While the comprehensive results are anticipated in spring 2024, early findings already indicate that 18-tonne trucks equipped with the Keyou hydrogen engine exhibit noise levels only half as loud as their diesel counterparts during low-speed operations and maneuvers.
