While all of this is very interesting and exciting, we likely won't be seeing either the 6.7L or 15L hydrogen engines enter production for quite a while. As per Cummins, the 15L engine will enter full production in 2027 and the 6.7L should be as soon as 2023.

This is an amazing video, and the first I've seen outside of the company. I work for Cummins Jamestown Engine Plant in NY. This is where all heavy duty engines for semis and heavy machinery are made. I'm the assistant manager for the Engine Testing team. I won't say much, as I'd like to keep my job, but the first two versions of this Engine were build at the end of 2022 and just entered the testing phase by our engineering team. It's been an amazing process to watch and be a part of and it keeps our future as a company bright and innovative!

As a diesel pickup mechanic, personally, I love the Cummins engine (the 6.7 and 5.9 are my bread and butter), and I'm glad they're attempting to keep the basic build of it the same. Pretty innovative. That being said, I wonder how all of these changes will translate down to us techs. Will there be a huge learning curve? Will it put us out of business? Or will it be simple enough and subtle enough to let us adapt? I guess only time will tell...

Nuclear power plants would be perfect to generate hydrogen. On the other hand, a hybrid vehicle like the Preus, just scaled up, would allow a smaller engine to run a larger vehicle efficiently. The stored energy in the battery would kick in much like a turbo does today and would give the boost needed to accelerate.

I found it biased. Going to talk about infrastructure for electric vehicles, but not hydrogen... Seriously there is like zero hydrogen infrastructure. I want both to succeed yet there are really no benefits of hydrogen especially as battery technology continues to get better. Storing it is the biggest issue. It takes too much volume. Real Engineering did a perfect episode on how hydrogen takes so much space that it literally makes little sense. It doesn't give more power. It takes too much space. Requires incredibly low pressure and tempatures to make it even close to not taking enough space. Costs electricity to create. Where are the benefits outside of novelty? There are better ways to do things. Unless we make some real break throughs in generating it. Like a mobile hydrogen generator that you can use anywhere there is water that is powered by the sun? It makes legit no sense. Someone needs to help me. What am I missing?

Actually this is not true. I replaced my 20 KW electric furnace with a 4 KW heat pump. So with that savings, I can plug in my electric car. If you just reduce your HVAC use by a little bit, you can have a net savings on your electric bill each month. Anyone who has owned and plugged in a home charger for their EV knows how in-expensive they are to run them. The electric company energy planners in the 1970's and 1980's had a difficult time with the new portable window A/C units that all tend to run noon to 7 pm every day. That gave them a headache. Overnight power at 9.6 KW for a EV charger is no problem at all! And in 3-4 hours, you can fully charge your car or pickup at home. The Ford F-150 uses about the most power per mile, at about 2-3 miles per KW of power. Well the Hummer EV is a little more power. So lets say you drive 30 miles a day, and need to put in 10 KW to your F-150. Or 90 miles and need to put in 30 KW. That will take 1-3 hours with a 9.6 KW charger that draws about 32 amps at 240 volts. Your air conditioner uses about 1/2 that amount of power, so it really is not that much stress on the grid system, considering you only need to charge overnight, when demand is low. And you would typically run the A/C more than 3 hours on a hot day. A Tesla car is about 4 miles per KW of power. So driving even 100 miles in one day, that would be 25 KW or about 5 hours with a 5 KW charger between midnight and 5 am. That would be about 20 amps X 240 volts. Or about what a 1970's 2 ton air conditioner would use. But you would typically use the air conditioner more than 5 hours per day, and mostly between noon and 9 pm, when others are also using a peak amount of power.

The City of Long Beach California has been running over 100 of the CNG diesel engines that run on 90% CNG for most of they day, when they run out of CNG, they switch back to 100% diesel fuel. They are started with both glow plugs and diesel fuel and run on the diesel principal, without spark plugs and run at 20:1 compression with a turbocharger. They run them in the garbage trucks, sweepers, and other heavy duty class 7 and 8 trucks. They have been pretty much trouble free, and tend to run longer between in frame overhauls than the full 100% diesel trucks. The exhaust is very clean! The cost to run on CNG is about 1/2 of the cost to run on full diesel fuel. It takes about 40 gallon of diesel per month, and daily filling of the CNG tanks. They used to use about 50 gallons of diesel fuel each day!

Like you, I've made on board hydrogen producing systems for gasoline engines. Electrical production is fast short of adequate to be effective. Using chemical production, burning aluminum, created enough hydrogen to increase a 2003 5.3 Suburbans highway mileage to 28 MPG. THE emission numbers were nearly clean water. Had l bypassed the 02 sensors, via installing 4.9 ohm resistors in their place, l could have attained another 4 mpg. It was a caustic and messy application, not worth the effort at least to me.

The question about the flammability of hydrogen (remember the Hindenburg ?) was solved by storing the hydrogen in a compound called "hydrides" in a fuel tank that bullets were fired into & "it didn't explode". At least that is what I remember reading back in 1973. I remember several years ago seeing a picture of , I think it was the CEO of Daimler Benz, driving a hydrogen fueled car.

Cummins is going to do anything to keep themselves relevant within regulations in the US. They build some of the best diesel engines around, but if the regulations don’t allow diesel engines, they have to adapt or they will disappear. Personally, I believe things will come back around to square 1 with biodiesel panning to the top. But either way, owning an excavation/land clearing business running stuff like my Fecon dedicated forestry mulcher, I don’t see how they can beat a diesel engine’s performance across the board any time in the near future with electric. I wouldn’t buy something that’s limiting us to running it for 8 hours max before charging, or something that will lose run time because it is cold. People like me are who the industrial engine manufacturers have to please.

As I understand, the benefit of using hydrogen instead of electricity directly for powering vehicles in some cases comes from the ease of large scale storage, it is easier to store hydrogen than electricity in large quantities. (For example, pumping water up hill into dam lake, to later make electricity from it with turbines). The hydrogen would mostly be produced via electrolysis when there would be an abundance of renewable electricity, for instance, a very windy and warm day.

Unlike petrol fumes it does not pool and then explode.

They have been making a trailer wheel set with a 200 KW motor and a 200 KW battery on the trailer for years. They help with regenerative braking to charge the battery pack, and then use a throttle position sensor to help when getting on the freeway or going up a hill. They are said to reduce diesel use by 13%. The system could also be used on a electric semi, and could be plug in hybrid system, instead of just charging with regenerative braking. I don't think hydrogen will be the replacement for diesel trucks. Maybe a gas engine conversion would work, (3.5L running on hydrogen and putting out about 250 - 350 HP) as a low weight alternative to the traditional diesel engine as a type of range extender. It would allow a semi to have a low cost and lower weight 200 KW battery pack, with perhaps another 200 KW battery on the trailer.

Maybe in 2035, kicking and screaming "Not US", but then when the performance of the electric motorcycle actually comes out, everyone will want one, and they will go 0 to 60 much faster! Ford had a F-250 that ran on hydrogen using a 6.8L engine and made 550 HP or about 80 horsepower per liter! So a hydrogen powered 3.5L turbocharged V6 could make about 400 HP and power the forward axle on a class 8 truck, then have a electric 400 HP motor on the rear axle, and run it down the road with a 200 KW battery pack, use regenerative braking, and run both motors when they are getting up to speed, or running up a mountain grade.

Hydrogen vehicles have existed for decades but nobody wants them. You say you're excited about hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, but why don't you own a Toyota Mirai, Honda Clarity, or Hyundai Nexo? Also, Harley's Livewire electric motorcycle is currently one of the best on the market. Like all the rest of them though, needs more range.

Hydrogen does not exist in nature. It takes HUGE amounts of electricity to make hydrogen. It is just a VERY INNEFFICIENT BATTERY and is a total scam WHAT DO WE DO WITH ALL THE GASOLINE if we stop putting it in our cars because of the 6,000 products including plastics, drugs, fertilizer etc would come to a HALT if we stopped using oil and we CANNOT STOP MAKING GASOLINE if we CONTINUE! Where will we store it all that gasoline when we move to hydrogen. Love to hear an answer. Its all one big scam to justify burning TAX DOLLARS, not hydrogen.

The one plus factor is that H2 is a way to store excess electrical generation locally. You can do it yourself, with rooftop solar and with wind generation right on your tiny plot of suburbia. Instead of a powerwall, you'll have that money in compression and storage. It'll be big and ugly - but so what? Tell the HOA it's good for the planet.Well, we all need to be farmers. Who have had these ideas since Weeds.

My biggest question is how the hydrogen would be delivered to the cylinders. If it simply goes through the intake, it would probably ignite too early, and without any ignition control. But also, could an injector deliver enough hydrogen to properly power the engine? My best guess is that it would use diesel for hills and basic acceleration, then switch to hydrogen when cruising at speed.

Company’s have been trying to use hydrogen as a fuel for years now. It comes with a lot of problems. Fuel need the be stored under massive pressure. Hydrogen isn’t very energy dense so you will need an extremely large tank for it. The stations to pump it will be very expensive and so on. There have been a few hydrogen cars made and they don’t catch on because of all the major problems to over come.

I don’t care how good battery tech gets. Yes to indoor applications like forklifts and golf carts than can fully charge overnight when not in use but for a bus or delivery vehicle that’s in constant use for 12 hours or more electric is a pipe dream. We have lots of natural gas and propane here in North America both of which burn cleaner than diesel and should be put to use.

Anything that stores energy is potentially combustible or explosive; gasoline, kerosene, hydrogen, lithium, diesel, etc. Short of using a flywheel as a power source, you will not have an energy source that is noncombustible within the context of daily driving usage.

Liquid hydrogen? At -400F the temperature is very cold, and will require a LOT of energy to make it that cold. So they put the pressure to about 8,000 PSI, and that also takes a lot of power, and requires rejecting a lot of heat while compressing the hydrogen. Natural gas also takes a lot of energy to compress it to the 3,000 or 4,000 PSI they run at. I think that hydrogen takes a lot more power than natural gas to compress it. There is also the danger involved with fuel leaks with natural gas or hydrogen, while compressing it, and when fueling the vehicle.
