Hydrogen Excavator Digs in at bauma

Hyundai Construction Equipment will have its HW155H hydrogen fuel cell-powered wheeled excavator concept working at this year’s bauma exhibition in Munich. The pre-production machine, first seen as a static exhibit at the last Bauma in 2022, will demonstrate how hydrogen could contribute to future carbon-free operation on construction sites across Europe.

The HW155H is a 15-t wheeled excavator that combines on and off-road capabilities, making it an ideal choice for hydrogen power. The machine uses the fuel cell to power an electric motor, that then drives the hydraulic system. The hydrogen storage on-board has the capacity to allow a full eight hours of operation, with refuelling taking between 10-20 min.

The HW155H will meet the needs of a wide range of construction customers, delivering an operating speed and power similar to that of a conventional diesel-powered excavator., with all-day useability.
