Scene 1 / 16 · Open — the heavy-duty gap
The hard part of
electrification.
Long-haul trucks, intercity coaches, ferries, mines — more range and faster refuelling than a battery alone can give.
The heavy-duty electrification gap
Scene 2 / 16 · The hydrogen answer
Fuel cell
sustained range
Battery
peak power + regen
Drive
500–1,200 km
Fuel cell + battery — diesel-class range, zero emissions
Scene 3 / 16 · The mixed-fleet reality
One depot.
Three powertrains.
BEB + hybrid + FCEB, running at the same time.
Most agencies run BEB, hybrid & FCEB simultaneously
Scene 4 / 16 · Fuel cells age differently
Catalyst loss
Membrane thinning
GDL flooding
Contamination
Fuel-cell degradation — four mechanisms a battery tool can’t see
Scene 5 / 16 · FCCare — stack health

FCCare™ · fuel-cell stack health
FCCare™ — stack health, hydrogen quality, predictive replacement
Scene 6 / 16 · The load-split problem
Static / naive split
Burns hydrogen, stresses the membrane, grinds the battery.
Dynamic optimal split
Degradation-aware — minimizes true total cost.
The load-split decision — seven objectives, every second
