Daimler Buses Partners with H2 Mobility for Hydrogen Expansion in Germany
Key Ideas
- Daimler Buses and H2 Mobility are collaborating to expand the hydrogen tank infrastructure for transportation companies in Germany, providing holistic consulting services.
- H2 Mobility is constructing additional hydrogen filling stations near transportation companies, operated at no cost to bus operators, strengthening the public H2 tank infrastructure.
- The cooperation aims to optimize hydrogen mobility in both local and long-distance passenger transport, offering significant cost savings and leveraging technical expertise.
- By the end of the year, the H2 Mobility station network will enable refueling at more than 50 locations for buses and trucks, enhancing the accessibility and adoption of hydrogen fuel.
Daimler Buses and H2 Mobility have joined forces in Germany to enhance the hydrogen tank infrastructure for transportation companies. Under this partnership, the bus manufacturer will facilitate access to hydrogen tank services for buses equipped with hydrogen-based fuel cells, adopting a comprehensive consulting approach. H2 Mobility is actively expanding its network of hydrogen filling stations in close proximity to transportation providers, with a focus on demand-driven deployment. These stations, operated by H2 Mobility, eliminate both the initial investment and ongoing operational costs for bus operators. Simultaneously, this initiative serves to reinforce and extend the public H2 tank infrastructure, ensuring a more robust network across Germany. Falk Schulte-Wintrop, Director Sales & Business Development at H2 Mobility, emphasized the benefits of this collaboration in achieving cost savings and leveraging a decade of technical and operational expertise. The partnership introduces a simplified solution for hydrogen tank systems, streamlining complexities and facilitating seamless implementation for Daimler Buses customers. As part of this effort, the H2 Mobility station network is set to provide refueling at 350 bar in over 50 locations by the year-end, with 34 operational stations currently in Germany. This advancement is a significant step towards promoting hydrogen adoption in transportation, enhancing accessibility, and promoting sustainable mobility solutions.
