H2 Mobility Deutschland and BASF have inaugurated a new hydrogen refueling station in Frankenthal, Germany, designed to cater to the refueling needs of hydrogen trucks, buses, and light commercial vehicles. The station, capable of refueling trucks and buses at 350 bar and passenger cars at 700 bar, aims to meet the increasing demand for hydrogen fuel in the Rhine-Neckar region. With a daily capacity of around 800 kg, the facility can service up to 30 hydrogen trucks and buses per day, providing a critical infrastructure for businesses transitioning their fleets to hydrogen. Situated adjacent to the BASF site and close to the Ludwigshafen Nord interchange, the station's location is strategic for supporting the regional hydrogen economy. The inauguration of this station represents a significant step towards climate-neutral mobility, with Federal Minister Dr. Volker Wissing emphasizing its importance in enabling the transition to hydrogen fuel for local businesses. The project is part of the H2Rivers initiative, aiming to advance hydrogen mobility in the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan area. Supported by investment grants under the Federal Ministry’s National Innovation Program for Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology, the station in Frankenthal has received substantial financial support. BASF's investment in the station's 350-bar module underscores the company's commitment to sustainability and integrating hydrogen into its operations. Dr. Tilmann Hezel, Senior Vice President of Infrastructure at BASF’s Ludwigshafen site, highlighted the role of this refueling station in expanding the hydrogen economy in the region. Looking ahead, H2 MOBILITY Deutschland plans to further enhance the facility by 2027, aiming to double its capacity and introduce an additional dispenser to meet the growing demand for hydrogen in the area.
