Orlen, Poland's state-owned energy giant, has inaugurated its fourth public hydrogen refuelling station in Central Europe, situated in Katowice. This station represents Orlen's second hydrogen facility in Poland, following the one established in Poznań earlier in the year. The company's Central European network now encompasses two sites in the Czech Republic as well. Equipped with two dispensers, the new station in Katowice is designed to cater to a range of vehicles, including passenger cars, buses, and trucks. Its operational capacity allows for refuelling up to 20 buses and five passenger cars daily. The hydrogen station in Poznań, operational since June, not only serves private motorists but also supports a fleet of 25 hydrogen-powered city buses. Orlen's strategic vision includes expanding its hydrogen refuelling infrastructure throughout Poland, with upcoming stations planned for cities like Warsaw, Kraków, and Gdynia. The company's ambitious target is to establish an extensive international network of more than 100 hydrogen refuelling stations by 2030, spanning across Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia. This initiative by Orlen signifies a significant step towards promoting the adoption of hydrogen-powered transportation and bolstering the renewable energy infrastructure in the region. By facilitating the refuelling needs of various vehicles, Orlen's expansion of hydrogen stations contributes to the sustainable development of transportation and aligns with the global shift towards cleaner energy solutions.
