Anglo American engages Williams Advanced Engineering for FCEV haul truck

Anglo American engaged Williams Advanced Engineering (WAE) to develop a Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) mining haul truck, a modified Komatsu 930E, powered by a hydrogen fuel cell and WAE battery system. The power unit was designed and built at WAE in the UK and shipped to First Mode in Seattle for integration with Ballard Power Systems fuel cells, before being sent to South Africa for truck integration. First motion is expected in Q3 2021.
