Ballard Power and Quantron deliver the first fuel Cell Electric vehicle

CTOnews.com, September 1, Quantron AG issued a press release announcing the next phase of its partnership with Ballard Power Systems, a provider of innovative fuel cell and clean energy solutions, with the joint delivery of the first fuel cell electric vehicle.

CTOnews.com noted from the press release that the core of Canada's hydrogen energy cooperation agreement with Germany is the integration of Ballard's high-performance FCmove fuel cell modules into QUANTRON vehicles, including 44-ton QUANTRON QHM FCEV hydrogen fuel cell heavy trucks and QUANTRON QLI FCEV light trucks. Compared with pure electric models, these two zero-emission vehicles have significantly longer mileage and shorter refueling time.

It is understood that European customers have received the first batch of five units, one of which has completed 15000 kilometers of daily operation in the trial operation with customers.

"We are very proud to be working with Ballard to achieve this important milestone," said PM Tim Sautter, head of the Q-Light team and enterprise. "the collaboration between the engineering teams in Augsburg (Bavaria) and Vancouver (Canada) is excellent. We shortened the entire process from feasibility study to delivery, taking 18 months to get QUANTRON QLI FCEV on the road and deliver it to customers in a record time."
