Hydrogen filling station in Nykvarn – an important piece of the puzzle in the transition to fossil-free transport
Hydri is taking another step towards a nationwide network of hydrogen filling stations by inaugurating a new station in Nykvarn. The station will be a central part of the effort to fossil-free transport and connect the Stockholm region with Hydri’s growing network.
With a focus on heavy traffic, but also open to passenger cars, the station contributes to reduced emissions in a sector that accounts for approximately 30% of Sweden’s total greenhouse gas emissions. Nykvarn will become an important hub in the ongoing transition to sustainable transport.
– Electrification is not enough on its own, hydrogen is a necessary piece of the puzzle for heavy traffic. The station in Nykvarn strengthens the conditions for a fossil-free future and supports the development of hydrogen trucks, says Michel Thomas, CEO of Qarlbo Energy.
– Scania is actively working with hydrogen-powered vehicles and the station in Nykvarn will be an important resource in our tests and pilot projects, says Tony Sandberg, Vice President Scania Pilot Partner.
With this inauguration, Hydri now has three public hydrogen filling stations in operation, and more are on the way soon.
