The H2Rescue truck set a record, traveling 1,806 miles (2,906 km) on one tank of hydrogen. Built by Accelera (Cummins) with DOE support, it’s designed for disaster relief and emergencies.

Powered by a Cummins Accelera fuel cell engine and a 250-kilowatt motor, the truck used 168 kg (370 lbs) of hydrogen from its 175 kg (386 lb) tank. It traveled at 50–55 mph (80–89 km/h) on public roads, emitting only water.

The trip saved 664 lbs (301 kg) of CO2 compared to a gasoline truck, says the DOE. It can provide 25kW of power for 72 hours without refueling.

Weighing 33,000 lbs (14,969 kg), the truck carries supplies to disaster zones, produces 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of water per hour, and could save 1,825 gallons (6,908 liters) of gasoline yearly, reducing emissions by 2.5 metric tons.
