B.C. fuel cell expertise is driving growth for a Daimler Trucks-Volvo Group joint venture

Cellcentric was forged in 2021 by two of Europe’s leading heavy-duty truck makers: Volvo Group and Daimler Trucks. Cellcentric’s mission is to develop, produce and commercialize fuel systems for heavy-duty trucks. At IAA last fall, it debuted its “new generation” fuel cell system, a 150-kW power plant boasting a service life equal to that of “a conventional diesel unit in long-distance use.”

The prototype unit came out of Cellcentric’s headquarters in Stuttgart. But its key components are the hydrogen fuel cells and fuel cell stacks. They are made at the new Cellcentric fuel cell manufacturing plant in Burnaby, B.C.
