Rheinmetall launches first pilot project for curbstone chargers with the City of Cologne and TankE

Green Car Congress

The German government’s ambitious target of 15 million electric vehicles by 2030 can only be attained if charging capacity keeps pace with the country’s expanding fleet of e-vehicles, since in future many more people who lack access to private parking spaces and charging stations will have to make the switch to e-mobility as well.

Raven SR & Hyzon Motors to build up to 100 waste-to-hydrogen hubs

Green Car Congress

into locally produced, renewable hydrogen for Hyzon’s fleet of zero-emission commercial vehicles. Our process eliminates waste from going into the landfill, and together with HYZON’s fleets will eliminate emissions pollution. Future hubs can scale to be three times larger to accommodate sites with larger hydrogen requirements.
