A Study on Hybrid Power Plant System of Fuel Cell and Li-Ion Battery for Garbage Truck

To reduce CO2 emissions of garbage truck, we developed a fuel cell garbage truck. It was designed based on analytical result of the garbage collection route, Shunan city of Yamaguchi prefecture, Japan. We performed bench test of hybrid power plant system, which is consisted of fuel cell system and Li-ion battery pack. We developed vehicle simulation model and analyzed hydrogen consumption and component loss in different power distribution methods.
