Westport Fuel Systems’ HPDI 2.0 Technology
Westport Fuel Systems has developed the High Pressure Direct Injection (HPDI) 2.0 technology, which enables heavy-duty engines to run on natural gas or hydrogen with minimal modifications. The HPDI system injects natural gas or hydrogen directly into the engine cylinder, providing performance and efficiency comparable to diesel engines.
Hyundai’s Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle Platform
Hyundai has developed a modular fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) platform that can accommodate various body types and fuel cell systems. The platform is designed to be flexible enough to use either hydrogen fuel cells or battery electric powertrains, allowing for a fuel-agnostic approach to zero-emission vehicles.
