Following the successful first hydrogen truck driver training on 13 May 2025, a second training workshop was held on 3 December 2025 at the Green Energy Center Europe in Innsbruck for truck drivers from the Tyrolean food retailer MPREIS

Second Hydrogen Truck Driver Training Strengthens H2CoVE and HyWest Activities

Following the successful first hydrogen truck driver training on 13 May 2025, a second training workshop was held on 3 December 2025 at the Green Energy Center Europe in Innsbruck for truck drivers from the Tyrolean food retailer MPREIS. This follow-up session marked another important step in qualifying drivers for the operation of Hyundai hydrogen fuel cell vehicles and advancing the goals of the H2CoVE Erasmus+ project and the establishment of the regional green hydrogen economy within HyWest project.

Building on the foundations laid in May, the December training once again focused on Austria’s first Hyundai XCIENT hydrogen truck, powered and provided by Green Energy Center Europe Codex Partners Ewald Perwög and Thomas Thaler, Chiefs of JuVe AutoMotion GmbH and Roland Punzengruber, CEO of Hyundai Austria. Participants received an in-depth introduction to this heavy-duty fuel cell electric truck designed for zero-emission logistics, covering:

  • Basic concepts of hydrogen and fuel cell technology
  • Vehicle architecture and high-voltage systems
  • Operational procedures and best practices for daily use

These topics further included technical basics, operational procedures, and essential safety concepts related to hydrogen and high-voltage systems. In addition, the programme was expanded to include an introduction to a Hyundai NEXO hydrogen passenger car (fuel cell electric vehicle). This allowed participants to experience hydrogen mobility in both heavy-duty logistics and passenger transport, highlighting the versatility of fuel cell technology across different vehicle segments.

At the conclusion of the training, all participants received official certificates, recognising their newly acquired competencies in hydrogen vehicle operation and safety.

These upskilling activities build directly on the training materials and concepts developed together with regional industrial partners and form a key contribution to the H2CoVE Erasmus+ project, which is preparing new vocational education programmes on hydrogen in the Tyrol region.
