New hydrogen refueling station in Gothenburg-Stockholm corridor

Nel Hydrogen Solutions (formerly branded as a part of H2 Logic) has entered into an agreement with the

City of Mariestad for the sale and construction of a H2Station®. The hydrogen fueling station will be

located in the strategic Gothenburg-Stockholm corridor, and will complete the last leg in connecting the

Scandinavian capitals. It is part of the EUR 100 million H2ME 2 project, co-funded with EUR 35 million

from the public private partnership Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking.

“The City of Mariestad is actively pursuing a strategy of increasing use of renewable energy and

fostering a local industry within new technologies. The new hydrogen fueling station is an important

step, as it enables use of hydrogen as fuel for vehicles and creates a platform for new activities within

renewable hydrogen production and energy storage. In addition, the new station in Mariestad will

provide hydrogen fueling in the strategic transport corridor between Gothenburg and Stockholm,

enabling hydrogen vehicles to make the cross-country drive between the two cities, for the first time”,

said Jacob Krogsgaard, Division Manager of Nel Hydrogen Solutions.

The project includes a turn-key installation of a H2Station® including services & maintenance and will be

owned by the City of Mariestad. The agreement has a contract value exceeding EUR 1 million and will be

delivered in the fourth quarter of 2016.

“We started working with the H2ME-2 program during the second half of 2015. We are happy to

announce the first H2Station for Marienstad, and will continue to work under the same program to

deploy more stations in the Nordic region”, Krogsgaard concluded.
