Port facilities across six states will receive millions of dollars in federal funding for the purchase of zero-emission vehicles and fueling and charging infrastructure through EPA grants.

Under terms of the grant program, FRA will pay no more than 80% of a project’s cost, with a minimum 20% match that can include in-kind contributions.

With help from the U.S. Department of Energy, the hydrogen industry and truck makers are working to develop a hydrogen refueling infrastructure that can support fleet operations.

Hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles may be envisioned as the future workhorse of a decarbonized longhaul freight sector, but their development has proceeded at a measured pace.

Hyundai’s plant in Georgia has been running its internal logistics operations using hydrogen and the automaker has been testing domestic production of the fuel using biogas from food scraps.

San Francisco-based Verne plans to offer truck makers the option of cryo-compressed hydrogen storage to achieve the same range as a diesel tractor.

“Despite overall market headwinds, Nikola remains focused on our mission to pioneer solutions for a zero-emission world, and we’re doing it one truck at a time,” CEO Steve Girsky said.

BMW AG plans to start selling hydrogen-powered vehicles in four years in a bid to establish the technology as an alternative to battery-electric cars.
