A snowcat without a Diesel: the snow waltz with hydrogen

Pistenbully is a generic term, such as Seltzer, or Tempo, but the inventors of the in Sterzing-based manufacturer, Prinoth, with its most famous (cable car) mark Leitner, the comparison with the competitors in tastes nevertheless not-so-right. The South Tyrol to take for the claim to be particularly innovative, and have a treat ready: your runway to not be able to do without caterpillars to a distant day on the combustion of diesel fuel and, instead of a hydrogen fuel cell, locally emission-free drive can.

A concept model makes first snow walzversuche. It is the designation of leader of the pack H-2-Motion, and, the company says, the first hydrogen-powered piste vehicle in the world. In this Winter, the test phase, the first public appearance was associated with the world Cup Ski races in Alta Badia start.

no loss for the runway operating the necessary technical properties that need to be on the snow-covered slope to the rather impressive to be Promised. In particular, the cold is likely to reset the battery. "The vehicles, both hydrogen - electric piste-grooming vehicle should be parked in a Garage and charged. As a result, the high-voltage remain conditioned components, and batteries. "The cold temperatures for the snow vehicle use is not a Problem, and have been taken into account in the design," says a technician from Prinoth.
