SinterCast joins Hydrogen Europe
Press Release
For Immediate Distribution
[Stockholm, 27 May 2024] – SinterCast announces that it has been accepted as a Corporate Member of Hydrogen Europe, the leading organisation representing European-based companies and stakeholders committed to propelling global carbon neutrality by accelerating the European hydrogen industry. SinterCast will work together with the more than 500 corporate and regional members of Hydrogen Europe to advocate the benefits of hydrogen and to implement solutions for hydrogen production, distribution and application, leading toward a net-zero society.
“Our membership in Hydrogen Europe is aligned with our strategy to contribute to the decarbonisation of heavy-duty commercial vehicles and off-road equipment”, said Dr Vítor Anjos, Operations Director of SinterCast. “We have a long experience of improving the performance and fuel efficiency of internal combustion engines. We believe that our materials expertise can contribute to the early adoption of efficient high-pressure direct injection (HPDI) internal combustion engines using hydrogen as a fuel, and benefitting from Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) as the optimal solution for robust cylinder blocks and heads. HPDI hydrogen engines enable the SinterCast contribution in perpetuity”.
“Hydrogen is rapidly becoming the leading contender for zero-emission transportation, especially for long-haul heavy-duty commercial vehicles which comprise more than 50% of our production. Expanded hydrogen production, distribution and refuelling not only enables the direct growth of high-efficiency HPDI hydrogen engines, but also the indirect expansion of net-zero liquid fuels that are derived from hydrogen and carbon capture. These renewable fuels are an important part of the net-zero solution for on-road and off-road applications, including CO2 reduction in the existing legacy fleet”, said Dr Steve Dawson, President & CEO of SinterCast. “We are pleased to be embraced as members of Hydrogen Europe, to collaborate with our peers in the automotive supply industry and with our OEM end-users, to help shape the future of clean transportation”.
