Case Study: Kouros achieves sustainable hydrogen freight transport with Capgemini

Hyliko Powers Freight Transport With Hydrogen

Kouros, a France-based automotive company focused on sustainable energy transitions, wanted to accelerate the adoption of hydrogen-powered vehicles in freight transport. To turn its vision into a viable business, Kouros engaged Capgemini, including frog and the broader Capgemini Group, to help create Hyliko and bring a carbon-negative heavy mobility concept from idea to launch.

Capgemini supported Kouros in developing Hyliko’s circular business model, investment case, and go-to-market strategy, then helped launch the hydrogen “trucks as a service” platform. Capgemini Engineering also contributed to hydrogen truck design and conversion work. The result was the first zero-emissions, carbon-negative mobility venture for heavy freight transport, with Hyliko signing its first contracts within a year of launch and preparing truck deliveries by the end of 2023.
