H2 Mobility aims to build Europe’s “most powerful” hydrogen station

The company has partnered with HOERBIGER and ARIEL to develop a new refueling facility in Düsseldorf with a daily dispensing capacity of more than 5 tons.

H2 Mobility has partnered with HOERBIGER and ARIEL to build Europe’s refueling station of the future in Düsseldorf.

The companies aim to develop the most powerful hydrogen refueling station in the continent, with a daily dispensing capacity exceeding 5 tons. This will be achieved by a compact and powerful compressor tailored to the key needs of the hydrogen industry. 

H2 Mobility will implement this compressor package combined with new modular dispensers to develop a future-oriented refueling concept for heavy-duty vehicles including trucks and buses. 

“In Düsseldorf, multiple 350 and 700 bar vehicle types (buses, trucks, light commercial vehicles, and cars) will be able to refuel simultaneously and consecutively at the same location. Thanks to our patented refueling technology, high-performance refueling is now possible. Our customers benefit more than ever from modern technology and the advantages of hydrogen propulsion—short refueling times with long range,” explains Frank Fronzke, Managing Director and COO of H2 Mobility Deutschland.

This milestone represents a significant achievement for all project partners. The collaboration between all three companies underscores the importance of technology partnerships in rapidly evolving markets like the hydrogen economy. 

Currently, 33 stations in the H2 Mobility network offer refueling options for trucks and buses (350 bar), and, by the end of the year, the number will increase to over 50. Overall, the firm currently operates around 80 hydrogen refueling stations in Germany and Austria.
