H2H Energy receives order for hydrogen refuelling station from Hyundai New Zealand
Jul 01 2021
QUEENSLAND, Australia, July 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — H2H Energy has received an order for a 350 bar containerised refuelling station from Hyundai New Zealand in preparation for the arrival of Hyundai’s FCEV trucks. The companies have been working together evaluating hydrogen opportunities in New Zealand since 2016, after an introduction from H2H’s long-term partner Hyundai Motor Company Australia.
Due to the nature of heavy transportation in New Zealand and the abundance of renewable power such as hydro, geothermal and wind, New Zealand is seen as a prime early market for hydrogen heavy vehicle fleet adoption. Earlier this year, Hyundai New Zealand secured funding from the Low Emission Vehicles Contestable Fund for the introduction of hydrogen powered trucks to New Zealand. Hyundai New Zealand’s deployment of a FCEV truck trial fleet necessitates a 350 Bar hydrogen refuelling station.
