Upon delivery of the additional S300 (30 kW) fuel cell systems, Loop Energy will aim to support M&I in increasing the production of its 8-metre city bus and monitor operational performance. Previously, the two companies partnered to develop the prototype bus, complete field testing and achieve EU homologation.

Following launch in March 2022, M&I showcased the bus across various European markets. Throughout the tour, the bus demonstrated increased fuel efficiency, allowing it to achieve further range with less onboard fuel storage. This has been a standout feature for fleet operators looking for a zero-emissions solution to electrify transit bus fleets.

“We now have the opportunity to deliver our hydrogen-electric city bus to some of Europe’s largest and most progressive markets for hydrogen-electric vehicles,” said Mobility & Innovation Co-Owner and CEO, János Onódi. “We offer a solution to decarbonizing urban transit, and with Loop Energy’s technology and support, we hope to deploy our buses in cities around Europe in the near future.”

“Mobility & Innovation has made tremendous inroads into the market over the last few months, and we are proud to be their fuel cell partner as they continue their journey,” said Loop Energy Chief Commercial Officer, George Rubin. “The accelerated growth in order volume for our fuel cell engines is a direct reflection of rapid expansion of demand for hydrogen-electric vehicles in our core markets.”

M&I’s progression to the Scale-Up Phase builds upon Loop Energy’s recent success of entering the Full Production Phase with Tevva Motors after finalizing a multi-year fuel cell supply agreement with delivery commitments in excess of US$12 million. Due to the accelerated adoption of its technology and the strong growth of its customers, Loop Energy will provide an update on its purchase order guidance during its Q2 2022 financial results on August 4.
