Global forklift trucks market: Introduction of fuel cell powered forklift trucks
Forklift truck manufacturers are increasingly focusing on R&D, which has resulted in a significant development in forklift trucks technology. Forklifts powered by hydrogen cells have already been introduced in the market. During the forecast period, the adoption of fuel cell powered forklifts will increase owing to the need for increased operational efficiency and presence of stringent regulations to reduce carbon emissions.
“The fuel cell powered forklifts increase the operational efficiency due to less downtime involved. Hydrogen cells need to be replaced only once in 10 years. The time taken to completely fill hydrogen-powered forklifts is 80-85% less when compared with battery-operated ones. In addition, the fuel cell powered forklifts provide consistent performance throughout a charge cycle,” says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on warehouse and storage.
