Transforming and decarbonizing the automotive industry requires a mix of powertrain systems and solutions across different vehicle classes, the companies stated.

Hydrogen fuel cells are electrochemical devices that combine hydrogen and oxygen to generate electricity. As pure water is the only by-product, fuel cell electric vehicles are a clean, zero-emission option.

As part of the cooperation, Bosch will use JM’s high-performance CCMs in its integrated, compact and scalable fuel cell power module for commercial vehicles, designed for longer distances.

JM Hydrogen Technologies chief executive, Anish Taneja, and Bosch Mobility’s executive vice president of Engineering Power Solutions, Beate Grota, signed the agreement at Bosch’s fuel cell center in Stuttgart-Feuerbach, Germany.

Anish Taneja commented: “JM is thrilled to be joining forces, exploring and developing future possibilities to accelerate cleaner mobility and energy generation.”

Beate Grota added: “The fuel cell technology for mobile applications is technologically ready for widespread use. Our partnership aims to further increase the performance and efficiency of the fuel cell stacks.”
