The aim of the joint project “WaVe”, which is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action, is to develop a hydrogen-based drive system for commercial vehicles in the medium-duty range and to test it in field trials using various demonstrators. At the core of the drive system is a new type of hydrogen combustion engine, which is supplemented with all the system components required for the vehicle’s operation.

The project started on the first of July 2021 and concluded on June the 30th 2024.
