Engines redefined

The Nuvera^® E-45 Fuel Cell Engine: Today’s answer to an emission-free future.

We’re at a pivotal moment in the transportation industry. To retain market share while meeting expanding regulatory requirements, vehicle manufacturers need to offer customers zero-emission options that perform as well as – or better than – today’s best internal combustion engines. They must be practical to own and operate, easy to maintain, and deliver the power needed to get the job done.

Fuel cells are the best answer to meet the demanding requirements for many commercial and industrial operations. Nuvera fuel cell engines provide world-class performance for motive platforms in outputs ranging from 5 to 90 kW and higher.

The Nuvera E-45 Fuel Cell Engine can power mid- and heavy-duty vehicles such as buses, trucks, port equipment, delivery vans, and more. For high-power applications, multiple engines can be combined.

The Nuvera E-45 Fuel Cell Engine delivers performance and value through:

A fully integrated compact compressor and coolant pump

Eliminates the need to source a compressor, saves space, reduces noise

Open flow field stack architecture for increased efficiency and power density

Enables longer range, improves fuel economy, and delivers emission-free power where battery applications are not feasible

Uncoated metal plates that provide proven resistance to shock and vibration

Nuvera fuel cell stacks and engines undergo extensive testing and have been used in demanding industrial truck applications

Patented controls to optimize operation and manage engine performance

Sophisticated controls system protects core components and optimal engine functions
