Operated by Hydri, the 1,500 kg of capacity/35 trucks per day station sits next to the Port of Gothenburg's Gate 6, the entrance to the Gothenburg RoRo Terminal and with 400 thousand vehicles/year, one of Sweden's most heavily trafficked roads.

The facility, partly founded by the Swedish Energy Agency, is Hydri's first in what will become a network of 20 hydrogen stations across the country in 2024-25.

"The large flow of trucks to the port and the possibility to refuel work machinery make the location for this hydrogen refueling station ideal. Combined with several existing charging stations around the port, heavy land transport at the Port of Gothenburg is now fully ready for a transition to both electricity and hydrogen," highlighted Viktor Allgurén, Head of Innovation at the Port of Gothenburg.

Michel Thomas, CEO of Qarlbo Energy and Chairman of Hydri's Board, added, "Green hydrogen has great potential to drive the transition of heavy transport. With this refueling station, we are paving the way forward towards a carbon-neutral transport sector."
