To this end, QaaS Hydrogen Alliance partnerships have also been established with well-known national and international companies from the energy, infrastructure, mobility and financial sectors, for example with NEUMAN & ESSER (German specialist for decarbonization of energy and industrial systems as well as decentralized applications and for the generation and use of climate-neutral hydrogen) and Ballard Power Systems Inc. from Canada (one of the world’s leading fuel cell experts).
In addition to these partnerships, in the course of the IAA Transportation Hanover also ETO Motors Private Limited from Hyderabad (India) joined for cooperation for both the Indian and European markets (also with the aim to introduce vehicles with H2 technology and infrastructure such as tanks, fuel dispensers and electrolysers between the two countries).
The goal of these strategic partnerships is to build and grow an open platform in the Hydrogen Alliance (from fuel cells and H2 infrastructure to a H2 refueling alliance), open to other manufacturers of fuel cell powered trucks and buses.
With the Quantron-as-a-Service Ecosystem, Quantron offers an overall concept that covers all facets of the mobility value chain. This 360° platform differentiates Quantron from other e-mobility providers (battery and hydrogen) and underlines the unique position of its market approach in the field of zero-emission mobility.
The future vision is commented by Andreas Haller, Founder and Chairman: “In 2019 QaaS was my vision of zero emission transportation solutions – in 2022 we have achieved the first significant milestones and in 2023 we will launch our first hydrogen powered heavy fuel cell truck – the Quantron QHM FCEV and this will also be the launch of our QaaS platform – an OEM agnostic platform for operating zero emission fleets, with a focus on Hydrogen as a Service”.
