Berlin, 04 Dec 2024 | Green hydrogen, produced and supplied by Tyczka Hydrogen, is now available at the H2 MOBILITY station in Erlangen. Further hydrogen refuelling stations in Bavaria, including Biebelried, Fürth and Pentling, will follow shortly. This milestone brings H2 MOBILITY closer to its goal of offering 100% green hydrogen across its entire refuelling station network by 2028 at the latest.
The hydrogen refuelling station in Erlangen, which is one of the most frequented stations in the H2 MOBILITY network, is particularly popular with heavy commercial vehicles. From now on, the station will be supplied with green hydrogen, which is produced by electrolysis from renewable energies. After Erlangen, other H2 MOBILITY stations in Bavaria, including Biebelried, Fürth and Pentling, will also be supplied shortly.
A clear goal: 100 % green hydrogen
“In order to make a real contribution to the decarbonisation of road transport, we have set ourselves the ambitious goal of switching completely to green hydrogen from renewable energies by 2028. Supplying the Erlangen hydrogen station with renewable hydrogen is a great success and marks the start of further supply contracts with Tyczka Hydrogen,” says Frank Fronzke, Managing Director and COO of H2 MOBILITY.
“We are delighted to be able to count Europe’s leading public hydrogen refuelling station network among our customers – and to be starting in our home state of Bavaria in particular. We greatly appreciate the professional cooperation with the H2 MOBILITY team. Further supply contracts are therefore to follow,” adds Thomas Zorn, Managing Director and COO of Tyczka Hydrogen.
As soon as the certification according to the EU Delegated Regulation on “renewable fuels of non-biogenic origin” (RFNBO) is available, the hydrogen supplied by Tyczka Hydrogen will be RFNBO-certified.
The refuelling station supplies business customers from the logistics and waste management sectors in the region. Customers include hylane, a hydrogen truck rental company and operator of Europe’s largest fleet of hydrogen-powered lorries (currently Hyundai Xcient Fuel Cell 4×2 and 6×2 trucks).
