This American player is playing a role in the construction of a refuelling infrastructure. Its hydrogen refuelling stations have been deployed in France, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands and Spain.
Most of these 13 stations are already operational and, in principle, all will be by the end of the summer. They have been delivered to customers such as Amazon, Stef, ASDA and Lidl. It should be noted that Plug has also installed hydrogen stations for its own needs, as well as for its partner Renault. Together, they set up a joint-venture 100% dedicated to hydrogen: Hyvia.
The largest of these sites provided by a Plug station can use almost half a tonne of hydrogen a day.
“The rapid uptake of our turnkey hydrogen refueling stations demonstrates growing demand in the European market,” said Plug CEO Andy Marsh. “This milestone underscores the importance of Plug’s experience with hydrogen refueling stations in delivering hydrogen supply to customers. Our team’s expertise has driven down time-to-market for a refueling station from 18 months to 6 months.”
To date, Plug has installed 250 hydrogen stations worldwide. The group plans to operate a green hydrogen highway across North America and Europe by 2028. It has also delivered 69,000 fuel cells.
