New follow-on order from E-Trucks Europe

Proton Motor Power Systems plc (AIM: PPS), the designer, developer and producer of fuel cells and fuel cell electric hybrid systems with a zero-carbon footprint, is delighted to announce the receipt of a further order from E-Trucks Europe for seven HyRange 43 Hydrogen Fuel Cell systems to be deployed in refuse collection trucks.

This follows the first order from E-Trucks Europe for five systems which was announced in January 2020.

The E-Trucks Europe vehicles are fully electrified (drive train and waste collector) refuse collection trucks with 136 kWh batteries where the Proton HyRange systems act as range extenders and allow almost continuous daily operation. E-Trucks Europe hydrogen refuse trucks have been deployed in, among others, the cities of Groningen, Best, Breda, Eindhoven and Helmond.

Delivery of this new contract is anticipated over the next 18 months. Additionally, E-Trucks Europe and Proton Motor have entered into a contract to provide maintenance services for the next five years.

Dr. Nahab, CEO of Proton Motor, commented: "We are delighted with this order which, following E-Trucks Europe's initial order for five units, confirms the attraction and reliability of Proton's HyRange extenders in harsh, real life commercial vehicle applications."

Mr. Andre Beukers, CEO of E-Trucks, said: "After the initial deployment of five Proton Motor HyRange units, we are very pleased to continue our co-operation with Proton Motor and be able to offer our customers fully hydrogen-electric refuse collection trucks which can be used 24 hours a day whilst remaining emission free and silent."
