Hyer Power - Hydrogen extended range Powertrain for Special Purpose vehicles including Ambulances, Fire Engines and Road Sweepers

这个为期3.5年的项目由专业氢气商用车公司ULEMCo Ltd牵头，合作伙伴技术服务(英国)有限公司负责冷却能力，Altair有限公司负责车辆能源系统建模，紧急一号负责消防车解决方案，牛津郡议会负责客户输入、试验和传播，该项目将开发和测试基于零排放氢燃料电池的电动传动系统续航里程扩展系统，并将其应用于一系列“世界第一”的特殊用途电动汽车解决方案，即救护车、消防车和HGV Road-Sweeper。借鉴COP26上展示的原型和测试的ZERRO救护车，它创造了一个工具包和一组“即插即用”的组件模块，利用大规模生产的丰田第二代燃料电池电池组，并展示了其灵活性、加速的设计过程、性能和实用性，以扩展这些应用的范围。氢气对于这些应用中可行的零排放解决方案至关重要，特别是紧急响应，因为快速和即时的加油使车辆能够“即装即用”，并具有工作所需的全部范围的灵活性。由于包装限制以及车辆传动系统和车载设备所需的总体能源需求，与纯电池电动汽车不同，氢气解决方案是过渡到零排放车队的最具成本效益的路线。传统的原始设备制造商并不专注于在满足英国净零排放目标的时间范围内为这些应用开发零排放解决方案。因此，该项目能够实现项目合作伙伴和英国专业汽车制造商的供应链增长，对于实现英国到2050年减少温室气体的义务以及相应的清洁增长机会具有重要的战略意义。

This 3.5 year project which is a collaboration led by ULEMCo Ltd, the specialist hydrogen commercial vehicle company, with partners Technical Services (UK) Ltd for cooling capability, Altair Ltd for vehicle energy system modelling, along with Emergency One for the Fire-Engine solutions and Oxfordshire County Council for the customer input, trialling and dissemination, will develop and test to a full manufacturing-readiness level, a zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell based range extension system for electric drivetrains, which is applied to a series of "world-first" special purpose EV vehicle solutions, namely an Ambulance, a Fire-Engine and an HGV Road-Sweeper. Taking the learning from the prototyped and tested ZERRO Ambulance, displayed at COP26, it creates a tool-kit and "plug & play" set of component modules, utilising the mass-produced Toyota Gen2 fuel cell power-pack and demonstrates its flexibility, accelerated design process, performance and utility to extend range for these applications.Hydrogen is essential for viable zero-emission solutions in these applications, particularly emergency response because of the fast and immediate refuelling that enables the vehicle to be "fit-to-go" and have the full flexibility of range required for the job. Due to packaging constraints and the overall energy demand needed for not only the vehicle drivetrains as well as the onboard equipment, unlike battery only EV, hydrogen solutions are the most cost-productive route to transition to zero-emission fleets. The conventional OEMs are not focussed on developing zero-emission solutions for these applications in the timescales that meet the UK's Net-Zero targets. This project, which enables both supply chain growth in the project partners and the UK specialist vehicle manufacturers, is therefore strategically important in delivering the UK's obligations for GHG reduction by 2050, and it's corresponding clean growth opportunity.
