HRS, French designer and manufacturer, and European leader in hydrogen refueling stations, announces the opening of its subsidiary in Dubai (United Arab Emirates). This new location demonstrates the company’s desire to strengthen its presence in a region with strong potential for hydrogen mobility and represents a major step in HRS ‘s global expansion strategy.
A strategic location to support the growth of hydrogen mobility in the Middle East
The opening of HRS Dubai is in line with the Group’s international strategy, which aims to strengthen its commercial and operational presence in regions where investment in low-carbon hydrogen is accelerating.
The Gulf countries now have strong ambitions to become major global hydrogen hubs, thanks to their abundant energy resources, modern infrastructure, and ambitious public policies. This location enables HRS to meet the growing interest of local authorities, investors, and mobility operators in reliable and sustainable hydrogen solutions.
With international orders already accounting for 67% of HRS‘s total orders in the previous financial year, the opening of this subsidiary in Dubai is perfectly in line with HRS‘s growth strategy.
A local presence to strengthen ties with regional players
By locating in Dubai, a true regional hub for energy and innovation, HRS is strengthening its proximity with decision-makers, investors, and operators in the hydrogen sector in the Middle East.
HRS will thus be able to support major projects in the region and develop lasting partnerships with public and private playerscommitted to decarbonizing transport and hydrogen mobility, providing them with its expertise and know-how in terms of technical support in the field.
In the Middle East, HRS has already successfully deployed its first operational hydrogen station, which has been in operation for over a year in Neom, Saudi Arabia[1], demonstrating the performance of its solutions in challenging climatic conditions.
A structure dedicated to regional development
The development of the area will be led from Dubai by Yanis MOUHAMOU, Business Developer, who will be responsible for driving local opportunities and coordinating strategic initiatives, under the supervision of Rémi PONCET, Commercial Director of HRS.
Hassen RACHEDI, Founder and CEO of HRS, said: “The Middle East benefits from an exceptional ecosystem for the development of hydrogen mobility: competitive hydrogen production, a long-term strategic vision, and proactive public policies. Our presence in Dubai allows us to be at the heart of this dynamic and to provide concrete support for the ambitions of the region.“
