Hyzon Motors Inc. (Hyzon), a hydrogen fuel cell technology developer and global supplier of zero-emission heavy-duty fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), has announced that it has delivered four FCEVs to leading food distributor and supplier Performance Food Group (PFG), in a joint ceremony.

The event, held at PFG's Vistar facility in Fontana, US, was attended by local government leaders, company leaders, and PFG associates, and showcased the new FCEVs by offering ride along demonstrations.

"Putting these zero-emission trucks on the road marks an important step toward decarbonisation goals shared by PFG, Hyzon and the state of California," said Parker Meeks, CEO of Hyzon. "Our fuel cell technology will help Vistar's heavy-duty trucking operations operate emission free and with reduced noise pollution. We are deeply grateful for our partnership with PFG, as it helps to further our collective goals to reduce carbon emissions from heavy-duty trucking."

Meeks added: "The deployment of these vehicles is a major milestone for Hyzon's technology, and through this partnership we expect to gain valuable insight through real-world operations. Further, we expect that this intelligence will help us to optimise our technology, while working simultaneously to develop the next-generation 200 kW fuel cell system."

Hyzon's hydrogen FCEVs have an expected travel range of up to 350 miles today and an expected refuelling time of fifteen minutes with fast fill dispensing. PFG plans to insert the vehicles into its fleet. The vehicles will be fuelled with hydrogen delivered by Pilot Travel Centers LLC, a fuel and energy provider with the largest network of travel centers in North America.
