CE-CERT is proud to announce our involvement in an initiative led by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to develop and deploy sustainable technologies for emergency response. The collaboration with DHS, the Departments of Energy and Defense, the Army Corps of Engineers, Cummins, and others has resulted in the "H2Rescue," a hydrogen fuel cell-powered emergency relief truck prototype. The H2Rescue operates emission-free for up to 72 hours, providing clean energy for disaster recovery. With a range of up to 1,500 miles and quiet operation, it's ideal for emergency shelters and remote disaster sites. CE-CERT's involvement highlights our dedication to sustainable transportation and emergency response innovation, with future iterations potentially utilizing water and heat byproducts for added sustainability.
