Gebrüder Weiss, a global freight forwarder with a core business of overland transport, air and sea freight, and logistics, has added a hydrogen truck to its fleet of vehicles. Instead of using diesel, the Hyundai XCIENT Fuel Cell model – delivered to the company’s Altenrhein, Switzerland, branch – runs on green hydrogen.
“The coronavirus pandemic has diverted attention away somewhat from the climate change challenge, yet the logistics sector is continuing its work with manufacturers to find alternative ways of powering vehicles,” says Wolfram Senger-Weiss, CEO of Gebrüder Weiss. “Our aim is to gain experience using this technology to help us prepare for a situation where it may see wider use.”
