The Hydrogen Heavy Duty Vehicle Industry Group – comprised of hydrogen industry leaders Air Liquide, Hyundai, Nel Hydrogen, Nikola Corporation, Shell and Toyota, has signed agreements with Tatsuno Corporation and Transfer Oil S.p.A. to industrialize globally-standard 70 MPa hydrogen heavy-duty vehicle high-flow (H70HF) fueling hardware components.
Testing is planned at an independent test facility and scheduled to commence in Q4 2021, with preliminary performance and safety results available in Q1 2022.
This collaboration includes a Letter of Intent (LOI) to lease 100 Nikola Tre heavy-duty fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) following the satisfactory completion of a Nikola Tre FCEV demonstration program under terms to be agreed to between the parties. The lease order will include the Nikola Tre FCEV, scheduled maintenance and hydrogen fueling solutions.
Deliveries of the FCEVs to PGT are anticipated to begin in 2023 when production commences at Nikola’s Coolidge, Arizona manufacturing facility.
Nordea hävisi tämän casen Finessä perustuen Nordean äänittämiin asiakaspalvelupuheluihin.
Itse olisin toivonut, että Fine olisi ottanut kantaa nimenomaan Nordea lomakkeillaan käyttämiin termeihin.
Mielenkiintoisia pointteja tuli opittua myös matkan varrella, joten koko matka valittajan karjavaunussa Nordeaa vastaan oli oppimielessä kannatava, mutta taloudellisesti ajatellen se kyllä vei ihan liikaa aikaa. Mutta Hammurabin lain mukainen voitto on silti makea
“After a tsunami of bad news the Nikola ship is starting to stabilize,” says Dan Ives, an equity analyst for Wedbush Securities who has a Neutral rating on the company’s shares. “Nikola has done a commendable job the last six months with this flurry of partnerships.”
Anheuser-Busch, which is waiting to take delivery of 800 Nikola trucks, is to get the very first hydrogen fuel-cell models the company produces. It will lease a combination of Tre models, with range of up to 500 miles per fueling, and Twos, which Nikola has said will travel up to 900 miles on a single fueling of hydrogen. And although Anheuser-Busch is set to be a core customer, it isn’t the single-biggest future customer—though the company isn’t disclosing who is waiting for more trucks.
Nikola is far from alone in pushing hydrogen to power heavy-duty vehicles. Toyota, Hino, Hyundai Motor, Volvo, Daimler, Cummins, General Motors and Navistar have their own hydrogen-fueled plans.
“Hydrogen trucking is a massive market with players such as Nikola and Hyzon among others going after this long-term TAM,” says Ives.
As of today, we have built seven (7) Nikola Tre FCEV alphas, comprised of two (2) in Ulm and five (5) in Coolidge.
Division of Enforcement at the SEC have been engaged in discussions regarding a resolution of the SEC’s investigation. The company expects that, if approved, the resolution would include a $125 million civil penalty paid in installments over time. Final resolution of this matter is subject to documentation satisfactory to all the parties, and completion of any settlement is contingent on a vote of the Commissioners of the SEC.
In addition, the Company intends to seek reimbursement from its founder, Trevor Milton, for costs and damages in connection with the government and regulatory investigations.
On October 20, 2021, we entered into a long-term supply agreement with LG Energy Solution, LTD. This supply agreement will provide additional battery cells for our trucks beginning in 2022 through 2029.
We also continue to hit milestones for the development of the Tre fuel cell electric vehicle or FCEV. We’ve built 2 alpha trucks in Ulm and 5 in Coolidge so far. These trucks are currently undergoing track testing at various locations in Europe and in the United States in preparation for our public road release, which is scheduled by the end of the year.
The road release will fall a 10-week validation and testing period after which we’ll start road trials with several customers in California in January
The long-term story on Nikola (NKLA) is still attractive to BTIG and the potential for the hydrogen side of the business is viewed to be worth close to $30 per share as a standalone, but the firm is waiting for more tangible signs of execution before turning constructive again.
We are pleased to bring this chapter to a close as the company has now resolved all government investigations. We will continue to execute on our strategy and vision to deliver on our business plan, including delivering trucks to customers, expanding our manufacturing facilities and our sales and service network, and building out our hydrogen infrastructure ecosystem including hydrogen production, distribution and dispensing stations.
Under the terms of the resolution, Nikola neither admits nor denies the SEC’s findings in this matter.
The company has taken action to seek reimbursement from its founder, Trevor Milton, for costs and damages in connection with the government and regulatory investigations"
