Logistic company DHL Express has launched a pilot project for hydrogen fueled freight trucks in Shanghai in China. The project aims to verify the performance of hydrogen fuel technology in heavy trucks in actual use and accumulate practical experience for promoting the application of hydrogen fuel cell heavy trucks in the logistics field. The pilot program will last for four weeks, and will be used for long-distance transportation of import and export express shipments between DHL's North Asia Hub at Pudong Airport and DHL's Shanghai-Jiaxing Service Center on Jingtang Road, with a daily mileage of more than 140 kilometers. DHL Express tested hydrogen-fueled trucks before in the Benelux region with Apple in 2021. During the piloting phase, up to 35 tons of CO2 can be saved with the new technology, according to DHL.
