Nikola Motor Company is a start up company that is headquartered in Phoenix Arizona. We currently have about 170 employees. We have developed 3 alpha (prototype) class 8 heavy duty trucks so far. We are currently developing a beta version of our battery electric vehicle (BEV class 8 heavy duty truck) and also a beta version of our hydrogen fuel cell class 8 heavy duty truck. We’re planning to build 25 test vehicles in 2022 and start full production of both trucks in the USA and in Europe in 2023. In addition to building zero emission heavy duty trucks we are also building hydrogen fueling stations to support these vehicles and our customers. Each of our fueling stations will have on-site hydrogen production using electrolysis. The capacity of each station will be at least 8 tons of hydrogen per day and we plan to build about 700 stations in the USA and in Europe by 2025. To start, we will build 10 to 12 stations in California. Each station will use about 20 megawatts per hour.

green” hydrogen from water and renewable power eliminates the fuel’s carbon penalty. Relatively little hydrogen made in that way is currently available, though Norway’s Nel Hydrogen, a Nikola partner that’s providing electrolysis technology, estimates it can produce low-cost hydrogen from renewable sources at large scale by 2025 at a cost of just $1.50 per kilogram, well below current fossil fuel prices.
Nikola & IVECO Trucks rolling off the line will be using NEL's hydrogen technology at the fuelling stations.

The agreements will allow the adaptation of the fuel-cell power modules for the Nikola Tre and US Nikola Two fuel-cell applications. Under the agreements, Bosch will supply both fully assembled fuel-cell power modules as well as major components to Nikola, including the fuel-cell stack, for Nikola to assemble at its manufacturing facility in Coolidge. The parties will work together for sourcing of remaining components for the assemblies.
Nikola and Bosch have defined together a scalable and modular approach for the Nikola Tre and Two truck applications based upon use of multiple fuel-cell power modules utilizing the Bosch heavy-duty commercial vehicle fuel-cell stack. The fuel-cell power modules are expected to launch in 2023, with the first application being the Class 8 regional-haul Nikola Tre FCEV. Nikola anticipates that the overall vehicle design will result in a range of up to approximately 500 miles. Nikola plans to further expand capacity for use in the Class 8 long-haul Nikola Two FCEV with an anticipated range of up to approximately 900 miles.
The vehicles are planned to utilize common fuel-cell power modules in 200 kW and 300 kW configurations. The fuel-cell power modules and components are being designed and validated for the demands of commercial vehicle power. The Nikola Tre FCEV will also be launched in the EU, utilizing the same fuel-cell power modules supporting vehicle manufacturing planned at Nikola’s joint venture with IVECO in Ulm, Germany.

Hydrogen Heavy Duty Vehicle Industry Group Partners to Standardize Hydrogen Refueling, Bringing Hydrogen Closer to Wide Scale Adoption
Published October 08, 2021
Oct. 8, 2021 – Phoenix, AZ: The Hydrogen Heavy Duty Vehicle Industry Group – comprised of hydrogen industry leaders Air Liquide, Hyundai, Nel Hydrogen, Nikola Corporation, Shell and Toyota, has signed agreements with Tatsuno Corporation and Transfer Oil S.p.A. to industrialize globally-standard 70 MPa hydrogen heavy-duty vehicle high-flow (H70HF) fueling hardware components.
The Industry Group was formed in February 2019 with the goal of addressing hydrogen fueling hardware challenges of achieving the fueling speeds that are needed for heavy-duty applications today. Other goals include testing and evaluating the hardware’s performance and standardizing the connector design to ensure adoptability throughout the world. This builds upon the collaboration of the hydrogen industry that achieved a global standard fueling interface for light-duty fuel cell electric vehicles.
Tatsuno, an international hydrogen fuel equipment provider founded in 1911, is designing and developing vehicle receptacle and dispenser nozzle and breakaway components, whereas Transfer Oil, considered one of the most valued manufacturers of reinforced thermoplastic hoses in the industry, is leading the design and development of a hydrogen dispenser fueling hose. The fueling hardware is anticipated to support average hydrogen fueling rates of 10kg/min which is in line with the US Department of Energy’s Technical Targets for Hydrogen-Fueled Long-Haul Tractor-Trailer Trucks. Testing is planned at an independent test facility and scheduled to commence in Q4 2021, with preliminary performance and safety results available in Q1 2022.
“This innovative fueling technology will be an essential part of our hydrogen infrastructure development strategy, making hydrogen available to Nikola heavy-duty FCEV customers and the industry at large,” said Nikola President, Energy and Commercial Pablo Koziner.
“Together with other industry players, Nikola is pushing the development and introduction of the new H70HF standard. The development of this hardware is an integral part to enable projected fueling times competitive to diesel fueling times,” stated Christian Appel, Nikola Global Chief Engineer Tre FCEV and Propulsion Engineering.
“This effort is a prime example of industry competitors working together towards a common goal of decarbonization. Toyota is proud to be a member of this group and of the vision we share for a future where diesel trucks are replaced with zero emission hydrogen fuel cell electric technology,” said Justin Ward, Group Manager of Toyota’s Fuel Cell Development Department.
“On March 23, Air Liquide announced its ambitious ESG objectives to ACT for a sustainable future. In full support of the 2015 Paris agreement, our commitments address the urgency of climate change and the energy transition, tar

..all sounds good.. just need to start to see the SP rise as the money comes in..
I remember seeing the Nikola IPO about 15 months ago. SP went nuts and then , I believe ppl realised / found out all the vids of Nikola trucks moving were bc they were free wheeling!! Hopefully they’re “real” now.
In other news.. E3 picking up this last week.. let’s hope not all continues.
SLL …fingers crossed for more.. ;-)
CUSN.. can’t figure that yet. The dip before the rise??
