TECO 2030 plans to industrialise the HD fuel cells and manufacture them at the Innovation Centre and gigafactory in Narvik, Norway.
The company estimates around 1m zero emission HD trucks will need to be deployed in Europe and the US alone by 2030, in addition to the existing trucks which can be uplifted with a HD Fuel Cell System.
Tore Enger, Group CEO at TECO 2030, said, “This will strengthen our zero emission technologies portfolio with a new space efficient HD fuel cell module, purposely made-to-fit Class 8 and 40-tonne truck chassis.”
Falko Berg, Manager and Technical Product Responsible PEM Systems at AVL List, added, “This is the only viable way to make sure that our customers like TECO 2030 succeed and are able to utilise their upcoming Narvik plant for additional needs.”

Last year, TECO announced a collaboration agreement with AVL List, which will see its hydrogen fuel cell stacks integrated into a prototype truck.
The DemoTruck project plans to construct a class 8, 40 tonne truck, with over 300kW net fuel system integrated into a standard truck chassis.

A Successful Ecosystem for Green Hydrogen – London
It is becoming ever clearer that the entire green hydrogen ecosystem requires alignment. Hydrogen’s potential, performance, and safety are proven. Green hydrogen is widely accepted as a core pathway to Net Zero, yet the key levers in the transition are not yet in-sync.
At H2 View we recognise the increasingly challenging economic climate that various countries/economies are currently facing. We want to help as many companies as possible in the hydrogen space to achieve their needs as competitively and logically as possible. As a result, we felt it was a compelling decision to relocate our previously planned event in Iceland, to a venue in London.
Join H2 View in London, one of the foremost investment capitals of the world, for a 1.5-day event devoted to thought leadership, insights, and actionable takeaways in the green hydrogen ecosystem, combined with the connections and networking to deliver against those objectives.
This H2 View hydrogen summit is dedicated to dissecting the ecosystem requirements to truly realise a green hydrogen-fuelled future across industries, transport, and society. This event will tackle all sides of the energy ecosystem, from wind and solar power requirements to additionality, water sustainability, electrolyser technologies, and investment and policy climate.
