INEOS Inovyn works with Daimler Truck, along with Amazon, Air Products, Holcim and Wiedmann & Winz, to run their first trial fleet of the Mercedes-Benz GenH2 Trucks, the first heavy duty liquid hydrogen trucks in Europe.

The Mercedes-Benz GenH2 Truck benefits from a range of 1,000 km and can carry the same payload as a conventional diesel vehicle. The trial offers INEOS’ PVC customers the opportunity to reduce Scope 3 emissions.

To understand this fuel-cell technology in real-life operations, INEOS will make around 250 customer deliveries across the Rheinberg area, Germany, over the next 12 months. The project is expected to expand deliveries into Belgium and the Netherlands next year.

“Hydrogen is a game-changing energy solution that will transform truck transportation and help us achieve a zero-emission future. As both a major producer and consumer of low-carbon hydrogen, INEOS is in a unique position to help drive this change,” said Wouter Bleukx, Business Director Hydrogen at INEOS Inovyn.
