Germany: H2 MOBILITY to reach 100 hydrogen stations target

Currently, the nationwide network of hydrogen stations for fuel-cells passenger cars comprises 91 stations.

H2 MOBILITY Germany will reach its first expansion target of 100 hydrogen filling stations in the months ahead. Currently, the nationwide network of hydrogen stations for fuel-cells passenger cars comprises 91 stations, according to a company’s press release.

The 100 H2 stations target is to operate the locations in seven German metropolitan areas (Hamburg, Berlin, Rhine-Ruhr, Frankfurt, Nuremberg, Stuttgart and Munich) as well as along connecting motorways and highways.

Passenger cars and light commercial vehicles can be refuelled with hydrogen at all existing H2 MOBILITY filling stations. Buses can also be refuelled at nine locations. H2 MOBILITY handles all the tasks – planning, construction, operation and marketing – that are necessary for expanding and operating the network.

From 2021 on, further stations will be built where demand for commercial vehicles is expected in the short term and where a public filling station makes sense in a growing network of hydrogen filling stations, says H2 MOBILITY.

H2 MOBILITY Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG is responsible for establishing a nationwide hydrogen infrastructure in Germany. H2 MOBILITY’s shareholders are Air Liquide, Daimler, Linde, OMV, Shell, and TOTAL, with BMW, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota and Volkswagen as well as NOW GmbH National Organisation Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology serving H2 MOBILITY in an advisory capacity as associated partners.
