Abstract

An electric motor driven fuel cell garbage truck was developed to reduce CO2 emissions of a conventional diesel engine garbage truck. A fuel cell power plant bench test was performed to confirm the fuel cell power plant performance and to develop a simulation model. Based on the simulation model result, hydrogen consumption and each component losses were compared by two different fuel cell system types and output control methods for weight reduction during one day driving in the Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The recent mass production of fuel cell system and battery pack were considered for the weight reduction.
