FPT Industrial Signs 2 MoUs with Landi Renzo Group for Collaboration on Clean Fuel Projects

FPT Industrial and Italian Landi Renzo Group have signed two Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at exploring the possible development of natural gas and hydrogen technology respectively.

As per the deal, the two companies will explore potential collaborations on developing complete, efficient and fully sustainable mobility solutions.

The MoU will allow both the organisations to leverage their specific competences and technological capabilities for both natural gas and hydrogen in light of the enhancement of their role as active players in the green economy in line with the European Green Deal strategy, boosting the growth of renewable energies in the transportation sector.

In the natural gas sector, the signing of the MoU has been intended to support the development of new fuel injection and management systems tailored for FPT Industrial applications, using Landi Renzo Group dedicated components.

The collaboration will aim at optimizing the performance of the entire gas system and engine, evaluating how best to integrate Landi Renzo Group components into both Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) applications.

The companies’ cooperation in the Hydrogen sector will also consider to cover areas of development that leverage the synergies that CNG and LNG can offer in bridging the introduction of hydrogen to the transportation sector, from its use as a blend in natural gas to up to 100 per cent hydrogen.

Commenting on the development, Pierpaolo Biffali, Vice President Product Engineering, FPT Industrial, said, “the road to green mobility means offering complete, state-of-the-art and viable solutions. And high added-value partnerships, like the one envisaged in the MoU just signed with the Landi Renzo Group, are key to our strategy, which aims at offering customers real opportunities and turn-key solutions, to lower the ecological and economic impact of their transport business.”

“Natural gas, biomethane, bio-LNG and hydrogen will play an ever-increasing role in the transport decarbonization effort, and we are very happy and proud to be at the side of a key player like FPT Industrial. This partnership acknowledges the major developments delivered by our Group as a technology innovator and system integrator, positioning the company to find new and increasingly efficient solutions,” said Cristiano Musi, CEO of Landi Renzo Group.
