From fossil fuel engines to high power electric propulsion systems based on hydrogen
01.
Identification
Green GT high-power propulsion solutions can help original equipment manufacturers to deliver market-ready, hydrogen-powered, heavy-duty vehicles, without investing massive amounts of time and money in Research & Development.
While manufacturers are required to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from new trucks by an average of 15% from 2025 onwards, the development and deployment of these new vehicles are very slow. Addressing this challenge, GreenGT aims at accelerating this transition. The hydrogen propulsion system makes it possible to use local energy supply, as hydrogen can be produced on-site. In accordance with eco-regulations, it doesn't generate any sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides or carbon dioxide emissions and reduces engine noise. Combining power, autonomy and fast refuelling time, hydrogen fuel cell trucks are a promising solution to meet the dual challenge of climate change and air pollution.

Implementation Stories
Red Bull and ORECA to build Le Mans hydrogen car for 2024
Red Bull Advanced Technologies and ORECA join forces to develop hydrogen-powered LMPH2G prototype. British and French companies will provide one-make chassis for new category. Announcement expected soon regarding powertrains of the new cars.
Fuel cell: GreenGT partners with Liebherr
Franco-Swiss engineering group Green GT has just announced a partnership with Liebherr. As part of this agreement, the two partners will develop an entirely new battery system. Called NGT, it will be intended for mobility applications.
Hopium Machina: a 100% French luxury hydrogen sedan in 2026
First model from a new car manufacturer, Hopium, the Machina will be presented in 2021 in the form of a first prototype. The car will offer a neutral carbon footprint and aims to become the world benchmark for hydrogen sedans. A first prototype of the Hopium Machine is expected in June 2021.
Who is Hopium, this French brand that wants to do better than Tesla? - BFM TV
Olivier Lombard, 29, is the youngest winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. He wants to produce a high-end hydrogen sedan in 2026. The Hopium sedan will have a range of 1000 kilometers and a "recharge" time of only 3 minutes.
Real estate – Romandy initiative to promote hydrogen
Aurora is a French-speaking initiative to promote hydrogen in the real estate sector. The objective is to develop the use of local hydrogen to supply energy to the building stock while reducing CO2 emissions. Spread over several years, the project plans first to model, then to install the system in a set of buildings.
