The primary goal for Toyota and Kenworth’s participation in the project was to match nearly the performance of diesel-powered drayage trucks while eliminating emissions to provide a sustainable solution in heavy-duty transportation. Earlier post.). The T680 FCEV has a range of about 300+ miles when fully loaded to 82,000 lbs.
Kenworth Truck Company and Toyota Motor North America are collaborating to develop 10 zero-emission Kenworth T680s powered by Toyota hydrogen fuel cell electric powertrains. The hydrogen fuel cell electric powered Kenworth T680s will have a range of more than 300 miles under normal drayage operating conditions. Earlier post.).
A zero-emission Kenworth Class 8 T680 day cab tractor equipped with a Ballard hydrogen fuel cell ( earlier post ) is on display at the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show (CES). The truck is part of the PACCAR Innovations booth exhibit—the first time PACCAR and Kenworth have exhibited at the show, which draws close to 200,000 visitors.
Designed to be flexible enough to meet the needs of a wide variety of OEM truck makers, the new fuel cell electric system in the latest prototypes has been adapted to a Kenworth T680 chassis. Converting the drayage trucks that currently serve these ports to electric drivetrains would move us closer to that goal. Port fleet rollout.
Kenworth has been awarded three government grants totaling $8.6 million that will support low emissions projects involving Kenworth T680 Day Cabs targeted for use as drayage tractors in Southern California ports. —Mike Dozier, Kenworth general manager and PACCAR vice president. The third project is funded at $4.8
Kenworth continues its advancements on low/zero emission projects focused on Kenworth T680 day cabs for drayage tractor operation in Southern California ports, which are backed by $9 million in government grants awarded last August. Kenworth’s work on these programs is supported by grants of $2.1
Eaton Corporation has established a program to assist diesel truck fleet owners in applying for the $156 million in grants for diesel hybrid trucks that are available under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The Eaton hybrid system is available on truck models from International, Peterbilt, Kenworth and Freightliner.
Indiana-based manufacturer Autocar built the chassis for 20 of the trucks and Kenworth manufactured eight roll-off trucks for Veolia’s new fleet. In addition, Veolia recently received a $500,000 Clean Cities grant to support its investment in a new CNG fleet. Veolia ES Solid Waste, Inc.,
million in grant funding for the new Kenworth T680 trucks ( earlier post ) which started making deliveries today. The company is on the wait list for an additional $900,000 in Prop 1B grants from the San Diego Air Pollution Control District, which would be used to purchase another 9 trucks.
Corresponding vehicle side charging hardware will be installed on a Kenworth truck, and power management and charging communication systems will also be included. The project also includes Kenworth Truck Company, which has delivered a Class 8 Kenworth T680 Classic to USU for the integration with the Electreon system at the test track.
the vehicles feature the first Odyne hybrid systems installed on Kenworth truck chassis and are the first to power Venturo corner mount cranes, which will be used in sign maintenance and to lift lighting as the county switches to more efficient LED lighting. Manufactured by DUECO, Inc. ComEd received a $1.5
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) announced up to $205 million in grants for projects designed to accelerate the adoption of clean freight technologies and reduce air pollution caused by the movement of goods throughout the state. Grants are expected to be executed over the coming months. Partner match: $6.3
An additional 250 zero emission trucks as well as 300 chargers will be funded by the grant. This grant followed an earlier $500 million from EPA to the South Coast Air Quality Management District, which will be used to get further zero-emission trucks, delivery vehicles and locomotives into operation.
The announcement specifically cites the makers of the Volvo VNR Electric , Kenworth T680e , and BYD 8TT tandem axle day cab as potential suppliers. billion grant from the National Clean Investment Fund , part of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund created under President Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act ( thanks again , Joe!).
The SDG&E-powered chargers were partially funded through a $200,000 grant from the California Energy Commission’s Clean Transportation Program. GCWR and is powered by the same 670 hp Meritor 14Xe “epowertrain” used in the PACCAR Kenworth t680e that debuted back in 2022. The Peterbilt 579EV trucks have an 82,000 lb.
The Port’s technology development partners are Toyota Motor North America, which designed and built the powertrain’s fuel cell electric power supply system; Kenworth Truck Co., —Kevin Baney, Kenworth General Manager and PACCAR Vice President. —Kevin Baney, Kenworth General Manager and PACCAR Vice President.
Schneider Electric reinforced its partnership with PACCAR, which is receiving a $33-million matching grant from the US Department of Energy (DOE) to continue the development of its Class 8 Kenworth and Peterbilt battery electric and fuel cell vehicles, along with its vehicle charging stations, for the SuperTruck 3 project.
This is the first large-scale demonstration of zero-emission Class 8 trucks that involves major manufacturers, including BYD, Kenworth, Peterbilt (both Paccar companies) and Volvo. CALSTART will focus on strategies to help develop the market and commercialize the trucks deployed and tested under this grant.
Toyota was earlier granted a Zero Emission Powertrain (ZEP) Executive Order (A-014-1170) from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for its new heavy-duty fuel cell electric powertrain kit. Earlier post.) The hydrogen-fueled powertrain kit includes a 200 kWh Li-ion battery; hydrogen fuel storage tanks (58.8
