The Impact of Hydrogen on Powered Industrial Vehicles
Today’s material handling operations require reliable fleets of powered industrial vehicles (PIVs). These fleets are usually powered by internal combustion engines (ICEs) or battery-electric vehicles (BEVs). Both of these options create several operational and logistical challenges. However, technological improvements in hydrogen fuel and fuel cells have created an alternative fuel source for PIVs. A recent […]

In recognition of his exceptional contributions to advancing OneH2 as a leading force in the hydrogen technology industry, Swapnil Revankar was honored with the Excellence in Product Innovations Award this month. Swapnil’s journey with OneH2 began as a Mechanical Design Engineer in September 2018. Through his unwavering dedication, motivation, and inventive mindset, he has risen […]
International Hydrogen Initiatives
As countries worldwide seek to lower their carbon emissions, many public and private initiatives are underway to expand the use of hydrogen fuel. Because it creates zero carbon emissions at the tailpipe and offers greater efficiency and operational benefits than many battery-electric alternatives, hydrogen fuel is a viable solution for many countries’ sustainability efforts. To […]
Powering Emergency Relief Vehicles with Hydrogen
Recently, the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Departments of Defense and Homeland Security partnered with Accelera by Cummins Inc. to develop a hydrogen-powered emergency relief vehicle. The result is H2 Rescue, a Class 7 truck that runs on hydrogen fuel cells and serves as a mobile generator that can power up to 20 […]
A Brief History of Hydrogen Safety
Hydrogen fuel has been used for industrial purposes for over 100 years (Rivkin et al., 2015). Prior to that, hydrogen has been a known material for an additional 100 years. Thus, the features of hydrogen have been widely studied and are well-known to researchers and developers of new fueling technology. According to the U.S. Department […]
Benefits of Delivered Hydrogen
For businesses looking to transition to hydrogen fuel, our delivered hydrogen solution can be a beneficial option. It can supplement on-site hydrogen generation or provide hydrogen fuel for operations that don’t generate their own. Hydrogen is delivered ready to fuel, with no additional compression needed. Delivered hydrogen offers multiple benefits including flexibility, affordability, and safety. […]
The Changing Landscape of Emissions Regulations
As federal, state, and local governments look for ways to decrease carbon emissions, new regulations on air quality, emissions, and fuel sources are changing the way many industries operate. Many fleets once powered by diesel or gasoline fuels will need to transition to a low- or zero-emissions alternative in the coming years. Navigating this process […]
Study Shows Hydrogen Fuel Cell Forklifts Reduce Maintenance Costs
Recently, The United States Postal Service (USPS) implemented a pilot project to determine the operational and financial impacts of switching its powered industrial vehicles (PIVs) from lead-acid batteries to hydrogen fuel cells. PIVs used included forklifts, tow motors, and pallet jacks. The battery systems negatively impacted productivity due to their extended charging times, short lifespan, […]
