Partners Shell and H2 MOBILITY Deutschland today commissioned a new hydrogen filling station at the Kirchheim Shell station at Hauptstrasse 1. The filling station closes another gap in the hydrogen network along Germany\u2019s motorways. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The H<sub>2<\/sub> filling station is now available, in optimisation mode, for regular refuelling of hydrogen vehicles at 700 bar. Optimisation mode is a standard commissioning procedure during which final work is carried out in the background.<\/p>\n<p>The filling station is located at the Kirchheim motorway junction and thus in direct proximity to the A4, A5 and A7 motorways in the heart of Germany. It is the country\u2019s 95<sup>th<\/sup> H2 station.<\/p>\n<p>Hydrogen is used to power fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). Its advantages are: no noise and no pollutants while still offering the same ease of use, speed, and range as cars with petrol or diesel engines. Fuel-cell electric cars have ranges of 500 to 700 kilometres and are refuelled in just three to five minutes. Hydrogen thus offers the possibility of expanding the fuel supply in the transport sector in a climate-friendly way, because hydrogen \u2013 especially if it is produced using renewable sources \u2013 can help to significantly reduce climate-damaging CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions.<\/p>\n<p>The company responsible for building and operating the hydrogen filling station is H2 MOBILITY Deutschland, a key player in driving forward the expansion of the hydrogen infrastructure in Germany.<\/p>\n<p>The new station reaffirms Shell\u2019s commitment to the hydrogen business. The company intends to become a leading supplier of green hydrogen for industrial and transport customers.<\/p>\n<p>The filling station technology at the new H2 filling station comes from the technology company nel. The facility holds around 200 kilograms of hydrogen and is state of the art.<\/p>\n<p>For the construction of the hydrogen station in Kirchheim, H2 MOBILITY Germany received funding of approximately \u20ac1 million under the National Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology Innovation Programme (NIP) of Germany\u2019s Federal Ministry of Digital and Transport (BMDV).<\/p>\n<p><strong>H2 MOBILITY Germany<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>H2 MOBILITY Germany is creating the conditions for unlimited clean, quiet, and uncomplicated hydrogen mobility in the European GSA nations: The company is in charge of building and operating a network of public hydrogen filling stations that enables electric mobility for light- to medium-duty commercial H2 vehicles (e.g. vans, buses, trucks, waste collection vehicles), as well as H2 passenger cars, without range restrictions and with short refuelling times. With the market ramp-up of the first commercial fuel-cell vehicles, existing hydrogen filling stations are quickly being expanded and new, larger filling stations being built where demand is expected to increase. Through H2 MOBILITY SERVICES, H2 MOBILITY Deutschland also supports third parties in planning, building, and operating H2 filling stations.
