Bavaria Advances Hydrogen Infrastructure with New A6 Motorway Refuelling Station
Key Ideas
  • Bavaria's State Secretary for Economic Affairs and Energy approved 2 million euros in funding for H2 MOBILITY to construct a new hydrogen refuelling station on the A6 motorway.
  • The station will cater to buses, trucks, light commercial vehicles, waste collectors, and cars, contributing to the decarbonisation of transport in the region.
  • Strategically located on a key transport corridor, the station will support the supply of green hydrogen to commercial vehicles, with the Widmann car dealership group as a central project partner.
  • The project aligns with Bavaria's hydrogen strategy, emphasizing the role of hydrogen in sustainable mobility and the state government's commitment to expanding the hydrogen refuelling station infrastructure.
In Bavaria, Germany, a significant step towards expanding the hydrogen infrastructure has been taken with the approval of funding for a new hydrogen refuelling station on the A6 motorway. The State Secretary for Economic Affairs and Energy, Tobias Gotthardt, handed over a 2 million euro funding certificate to H2 MOBILITY for this project. The station, set to be constructed at the A6 motorway exit Amberg-Ost, will offer refuelling facilities for various types of vehicles, including buses, trucks, light commercial vehicles, waste collectors, and cars, aiming to support the decarbonisation of transport in the region. The strategic location of the station on the Rhine-Danube transport corridor towards the Czech Republic positions it as a crucial hub for supplying commercial vehicles with green hydrogen. The involvement of local project partner Widmann car dealership group further reinforces the commitment to promoting hydrogen usage in the commercial vehicle segment. The project not only contributes to reducing carbon emissions from transport but also creates synergies with other hydrogen initiatives in the Nuremberg metropolitan region. This development reflects Bavaria's dedication to hydrogen as a key element in achieving sustainable mobility and highlights the government's efforts to accelerate the expansion of hydrogen refuelling infrastructure.
