Thanks to the development of an <strong>electric truck for regional transport, with a range of up to 400 km, and a fuel cell truck for long distances, with a range of up to 750 km<\/strong>, we are paving the way towards zero-emission mobility that can meet both local needs and those of major European corridors.<\/p>\n<p>A key element is the commitment of <strong>IIT Hydrogen<\/strong>, which is responsible for infrastructure: from the construction of a 700 bar high flow refuelling station for heavy vehicles, to the monitoring of existing routes and infrastructure in Austria and Germany, to the coordination of working groups with stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>During the two days in Turin, the partners shared technological advances and defined the next steps. Above all, they confirmed a clear message: <strong>investing in European research and projects means believing in a sustainable, concrete and shared future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The ecological transition requires courage, vision and collaboration. <strong>EMPOWER<\/strong> is proof that when institutions, research and industry work together, Europe becomes a driver of innovation and hope for future generations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_position=&#8221;default&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;2284&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;entrance&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; animation_movement_type=&#8221;transform_y&#8221; hover_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; image_loading=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_mobile=&#8221;default&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Turin, the partners of the European project discussed progress in the development of electric and fuel cell heavy-duty vehicles, defining the next steps towards zero-emission mobility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":1876,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2277","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-senza-categoria"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2277","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2277"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2277\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2320,"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2277\/revisions\/2320"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1876"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2277"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2277"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iithydrogen.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2277"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
