The H2Accelerate collaboration is publishing a series of whitepapers in support of the use of hydrogen in long haul trucking, starting with a paper on the ‘Need for hydrogen trucking in Europe’, published in June 2021.

Linking Hydrogen Mobility with Industrial Hubs This whitepaper analyses the future 'European Hydrogen Network': locations where hydrogen will be produced, imported, transported, and used by industry, and explores the benefits of cross-sectoral collaboration and co-location to both industrial and mobility hydrogen projects. pdf

EU Policy Paper This paper identifies several key areas that are constraining the implementation of hydrogen as a fuel for heavy-duty road transport in Europe, and recommends actions be urgently taken by the European Commission to enable the scaled deployment of hydrogen trucking and attainment of the 2030 HDV CO₂ targets. pdf

UK Policy Paper This paper explores the existing UK policy framework supporting the roll-out of low-carbon hydrogen trucking and outlines policy recommendations that H2Accelerate members believe will help develop a UK hydrogen trucking industry. pdf

Policy Position Statement June 2023 A joint policy statement from the H2Accelerate collaboration on the need for cohesive European policy to facilitate the deployment of a pan-European hydrogen trucking system. pdf

Expectations for the first phase of the fuel cell truck and infrastructure deployment This paper outlines the truck and hydrogen refuelling station deployment plans of H2Accelerate members in the period up to 2027, while highlighting expected advancements in the other elements of the system, such as the hydrogen production and the supporting maintenance and service networks for the deployed vehicles. pdf

Analysis of cost of ownership and the policy support required to enable industrialisation of fuel cell trucks This paper seeks to articulate the likely evolution of the cost base for fuel cells trucks through time, and then uses this to define the policy support which will be required to underpin the transition to an economically viable fuel cell trucking system for Europe. pdf

Understanding and Meeting Customer Expectations for Hydrogen Trucking A whitepaper setting out the needs of truck end-users and logistics providers as these organisations look to decarbonise operations, focusing on the opportunities and challenges that hydrogen trucking brings. pdf

Position Paper on AFIR In this position paper, the H2Accelerate Collaboration reflects on the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR), and what is required to lift market barriers and support the needed market growth of hydrogen trucking. pdf

Expectations for the fuel cell truck market In order to meet end user needs, the fuel cell truck market will need to scale-up from the limited deployments seen today to a pan-European system capable of serving tens of thousands of trucks. pdf

The need for hydrogen trucking in Europe Hydrogen will play a key role in decarbonising energy systems, and is the only zero emissions fuel that is able to meet operator needs in certain heavy duty trucking applications. pdf
