Colruyt Group deploys Scania hydrogen fuel-cell trucks in daily logistics pilot
  • Colruyt Group began daily operations with two Scania hydrogen fuel-cell trucks, targeting 100% zero-emission freight transport by 2030.
  • The retailer plans to run freight entirely on green electricity and green hydrogen by 2035, shifting its heavy-duty fleet strategy.
  • The trucks are fully electric, using a 300 kW fuel cell to support batteries, with range of about 800 km.
  • Vehicles can operate at up to 50-ton gross train weight, positioning hydrogen as a long-haul option alongside battery-electric trucks.
  • Project stems from a partnership launched in 2020; Belgian road approval required an individual homologation process lasting about 18 months.
