Carrefour, HysetCo launch three new hydrogen stations in Paris
Published on: Aug 22, 2024
The new locations are part of a project supported by the European Commission and the Île-de-France Région to expand H2 mobility across the region.
HysetCo, Carrefour, the European Commission and the Île-de-France Région are joining forces to announce the opening of three new hydrogen stations.
The new stations will be located on the sites of the Carrefour hypermarkets in Drancy, Collégien and Pontault-Combault locations. Each will support the chain’s efforts to decarbonize mobility and improve air quality.
The facilities will provide a hydrogen dispensing capacity of 500 kg per day through two dispensers, the equivalent of 100 to 200 daily fill-ups for cars and light commercial vehicles.
“The deployment of these first hydrogen filling stations is an illustration of Carrefour's commitment to the energy transition. Thanks to this partnership, Carrefour offers its customers an additional alternative for carbon-free mobility,” said Hervé Mantoux, Carrefour Fuel Business Unit Director.
With this deployment, HysetCo is expanding its hydrogen distribution network in the Paris region to a total of eight stations operational. This network is set to grow even further, with the company aiming to open a dozen new sites in the future.
The three stations inaugurated in July 2024 are part of a project co-funded by the European Commission (Hydrogen Fuel for Paris) and the Île-de-France Region. The overall project has been developed to support a network of eight hydrogen stations in the region.
