There’s a new hydrogen station at Paris-Orly Airport. HysetCo strengthens its network
The new station replaces the first hydrogen station in the Paris region, originally settled at the airport in 2017. As airport access roads account for up to 30% of non-flight-related carbon emissions, this initiative illustrates a strong commitment to cleaner and more efficient mobility solutions. This project is supported by the French government, the European Union through the CEF Transport program, and the Île-de-France Region, key public partners.
HysetCo is strengthening its network of hydrogen stations in the Île-de-France region. To support the demand for hydrogen in transportation, the company has increased the distribution capacity of its Paris-Orly airport station to 1 ton per day. This project is supported by the French government, the European Union through the CEF Transport program, and the Île-de-France Region, key public partners.
According to the French player, the Paris-Orly Airport site plays a strategic role in the deployment of hydrogen mobility in dense urban areas. With a new distribution capacity of 1 ton per day, the station can now fuel more than 500 vehicles per day. More into details, the new station replaces the first hydrogen station in the Paris region, originally settled at the airport in 2017. As airport access roads account for up to 30% of non-flight-related carbon emissions, this initiative illustrates a strong commitment to cleaner and more efficient mobility solutions.
Hydrogen station at Paris-Orly Airport
“The inauguration of this hydrogen station within the airport provides easier access to clean, renewable energy, reinforcing our shared commitment to decarbonized mobility, for the benefit of airport users and local residents alike”, commented Laurence Faure, Director of Paris-Orly Airport, Groupe ADP. “Paris-Orly, which will be carbon-neutral for internal emissions by 2025, is on track for net-zero ground emissions by 2030, a vision we share with committed partners like HysetCo. Together, we are advancing a sustainable approach where progress goes hand in hand with responsibility, firmly believing that every action counts”.
“Multiplying our hydrogen distribution capacity at Orly by six is a major milestone in our mission to offer a zero-emission mobility solution that is comprehensive, consistent, and accessible to all. Today, HysetCo operates 800 hydrogen vehicles, the world’s largest hydrogen fleet and we plan to multiply this figure by five within the next five years, particularly in the fast-growing segment of light commercial vehicles”, added Loïc Voisin, President of HysetCo.
