JCB Powertrain's stand at bauma 2025 will emphasize their commitment toward hydrogen technology and engines.
JCB is the first construction equipment company to develop a fully working combustion engine fuelled by hydrogen and a team of 150 engineers has been working on the exciting £100 million development for over three years.
JCB has already produced more than 130 evaluation engines which are powering backhoe loaders, Loadall telescopic handlers and generator sets. The hydrogen engine will also be suitable for applications across many industry sectors and to highlight this opportunity it will now be shown on the stand.
The company also will show a complete JCB Powertrain model, a full assembly of diesel engine, transmission and axles. This complete driveline package, based around the company’s popular 448 Stage V engine, is available to original equipment manufacturers (OEM) as a single unit, or as individual components, to suit their specific machine requirements.
Engine and driveline experts from JCB Powertrain will be available throughout the show, to discuss individual manufacturer and customer needs. They also have cleared significant hurdles in its development of the world’s first hydrogen combustion engine after securing landmark rulings from 11 licensing authorities across Europe allowing it to be used commercially in machines.
