Hydrogen Fueling Station Industry Developments

February 2024- A leading producer of heavy-duty battery and fuel cell electric vehicles, Nikola has inaugurated the first plant in what will become a network of hydrogen refueling stations in southern California. The plant – located in Ontario, California – is part of Nikola's HYLA brand and can fuel nearly 40 of the companions’ hydrogen fuel cell electric Class 8 trucks every day. The company targets to develop a network of nearly 60 such hydrogen fueling stations over the next few years and strategizes to have nine up and running by the end of the second quarter of 2024. While the Ontario station is a fraction of the private network at this point, the brand is developing the HYLA stations to accommodate all 700-bar Class 8 OEM trucks, Nikola's president of energy, Ole Hoefelmann, told in a press release.

In November 2023 Two hydrogen-refuelling stations for buses and cars were launched in Poland by Calvera Hydrogen. One is located in Katowice, while the other one is found in Poznan. The facilities include compression modules, tube trailers, dispensers as well as storage modules and a control system.

First Element Fuel Inc. opened a high-capacity hydrogen station in Oakland, U.S., expanding its true zero network to 41 retail locations as of October 2023. It consists of four H70 fill-capable dispensers which can deliver up to 1600 kg per day. This became possible after forming a partnership with Hyundai Motor to develop 30 XCIENT fuel cell trucks that facilitated the installation of this facility. The multi-use station situated in Oakland handles heavy-duty vehicles running on hydrogen will become the global most extensive.

The first high-pressure-hydrogen-station-for-trucks-in Europe was built by Air Liquide together with Iveco Group at Marseille, France, in June 2023. The collaboration aims at driving forward hydrogen as an essential constituent for transitioning towards sustainable energy within the transport sector through leveraging Air Liquide’s experience across the value chain around hydrogen and Iveco’s exposure to production of alternative-based fuel-driven automobiles

For example, ADNOC announced progress regarding its initial Middle East Hydrogen refueling hub for operating a fleet of commercial vehicles run by this power source. In July 2022, ADNOC revealed a plan to construct its first regional hydrogen refueling station that would serve its own fleet of these trucks, thereby making it the first country within the Middle East region where such technology will be introduced.

For instance, on May 2, 2023, Voltera and Nikola announced that they would join forces in establishing fifty hydrogen stations in North America.

Air Products Qudra has signed an agreement with ENOWA, NEOM's Energy, Water and Hydrogen subsidiary, to construct, own and operate NEOM's first hydrogen fueling station as well as provide essential infrastructure for NEOM’s sustainability objectives in March 2023.

In February 2023, Air Liquide and TotalEnergies were forming a joint venture of equal stakes for the realization of a network of about one hundred hydrogen stations along major European routes dedicated to heavy-duty European vehicles. This is enabling the firm to gain additional market share in the Hydrogen Fueling Station industry.

The inaugural Nikola Corporation hydrogen refueling station debuted in Ontario, California in February 2024. The southern California hydrogen refueling station planned by HYLA is the first of its kind.  There is a rising need for environmentally friendly heavy-duty transportation, and the Ontario facility can supply 40 of these vehicles every day with hydrogen fuel cell electricity.  Nikola plans to construct around sixty hydrogen fueling stations in the coming years. To show its dedication to hydrogen infrastructure and zero-emission mobility, the firm opened nine such stations by Q2 2024.

A Memorandum of Understanding was signed in September 2023 between Air Liquide and Trillium Energy Solutions to decarbonize the transportation industry in the US market for heavy-duty hydrogen. Hydrogen production, distribution, and fuelling infrastructure deployment are all areas that Air Liquide and Trillium merged through this MoU. It also hastened the heavy-duty hydrogen transportation ecosystem by concentrating on the supply of hydrogen and the infrastructure for refilling it.

In July 2023, Sustainable transportation in the Middle East reached a new benchmark with ADNOC's plan to build the region's first high-speed hydrogen refueling station in Masdar City. In a joint effort with Toyota and Al-Futtaim Motors, ADNOC tested a fleet of hydrogen-powered vehicles at this cutting-edge station, demonstrating the usefulness of clean energy solutions in the real world.

Important details on the scalability and operating effectiveness of fast hydrogen refueling infrastructure were uncovered by this pilot experiment. The United Arab Emirates has lofty goals for its National Hydrogen Strategy, one of which is to become the world's leading producer of hydrogen by the year 2031. This coincides with those goals. By implementing this approach, the nation better facilitates its economic shift toward a low-carbon model and further its position as a world leader in innovative energy solutions.
