Hydrogenics Opens Hydrogen Fueling Station Installations in Germany and France


Hydrogenics Corporation today announced the installation of two HySTAT electrolysers in Europe for fueling station applications. In conjunction with Heliocentris Fuel Cells AG, a German fuel cell systems integrator, Hydrogenics has installed a hydrogen-generating electrolyser at a bus fueling station in Barth, Germany and, separately, the Company
has also installed, with Schwelm of Germany, an electrolyser in Dunkirk, France for a similar hydrogen fueling application.

In Barth, the Hydrogenics electrolyser will be incorporated within a solar-assisted gas generation system, providing a zero-emission fueling solution for a bus also powered by Hydrogenics' fuel cells - integrated by Heliocentris within a full electric hybrid powertrain. While producing clean, renewable fuel, the gas generation system will simultaneously provide oxygen to increase the efficiency of a municipal water treatment facility, saving capital costs for an otherwise necessary extension of treatment capacity.

The Dunkirk fueling station is already operational, with buses running on a blend of hydrogen and natural gas. Dunkirk is the first city in France to have a public hydrogen station.
