Energy

FULL ELECTRIC OR HYDROGEN POWERED.

Two ways to acheive Zero-emission.

One modular vehicle architecture.

Complementary technology that provides benefits for diverse use cases and transportation needs

THE POWERPACK® a plug and play source of energy for our vehicles

POWERPACK FULL ELEC

In 2011, Gaussin  invented and developed a compact, modular and versatile solution that packages the required components for energy storage, supervision and thermal management.

The POWERPACK FULL ELEC utilizes the latest generation of battery technologies as a source of energy.

Easy, Safe and Fast Swap

The POWERPACK swapping system has been designed to tackle the battery range challenge with a novel approach.

It takes 3 minutes using standard material handling equipment to replace a drained POWERPACK with a fully charged one.

Benefits

Eliminates vehicle immobilization during charging.

Reduces the number of spare batteries required across a fleet, with optimized sizing based on your peak operations.

Reduces the number of vehicles required to perform the same operations and therefore delivers a lower Total Cost of Ownership compared to traditional BEV solutions.

Scalable : from 30 kWh to 260kW

Multiple battery options to fit your operations and environment

We select and integrate best-in-class cells and modules from the top manufacturers in the world.

Whatever your duty cycle or operational environment, we provide the appropriate battery to meet your requirements.

POWERPACK FUEL CELL/H2

In 2013 Gaussin developed a compact, modular and versatile solution that packages the required components for Hydrogen fuel-cell energy generation, supervision and thermal management.

The H2 POWERPACK  utilizes the latest fuel-cell, tank storage and energy management systems from our strategic partners.

Where virtually all other fuel sources produce carbon dioxide or some other harmful emission as a byproduct of their consumption, using hydrogen in fuel cells produces only electricity and water.

A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that combines hydrogen fuel with oxygen to produce electricity.

Hydrogen is stored in a pressurized container and oxygen is extracted from the air.

Because of the absence of combustion, there are no harmful emissions, and the only by-product is pure water.

The Hydrogen POWERPACK is utilized in combination with battery capacity to provide the maximum performance when required.

Benefits

Sustainable source of energy

Quick refuelling : 5 minutes

Longer autonomy

Reduced vehicle weight

The specific approach to the production process, including the energy source utilized, will determine whether hydrogen is green or blue.

Blue hydrogen

Blue hydrogen is produced when natural gas is split into hydrogen and CO2 either by Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) or Auto Thermal Reforming (ATR), but the CO2 is captured and then stored. Since the greenhouse gases are captured, this mitigates the environmental impacts on the planet.

The ‘capturing’ is done through a process called Carbon Capture Usage and Storage (CCUS). More about that in due course.

Green hydrogen

Green hydrogen is produced by splitting water by electrolysis. This produces only hydrogen and oxygen. We can utilize the hydrogen, while venting the oxygen to the atmosphere with no negative impact.

Electricity is required for the process of electrolysis, and Green hydrogen is powered by renewable energy sources, such as wind or solar. This makes green hydrogen the cleanest option.

Scalable : from 30 kWh to 260kW
