Hyzon, a U.S.-based, hydrogen fuel cell technology developer and supplier of zero-emission powertrains and New Way Trucks, a refuse truck body manufacturer, have debuted a hydrogen fuel cell-powered electric refuse truck to the U.S. market.

This follows a February announcement of the Joint Development Agreement (JDA) between New Way and Hyzon to develop a zero-emission refuse collection solution.
