German zero-emission truck manufacturer Quantron has found valuable partner as for hydrogen production and distribution in the Nordic countries, namely Norway, Iceland, Sweden, Finland and Denmark. In fact, Westgass Hydrogen and Quantron AG have signed a Strategic Cooperation Agreement, part of a wider strategy for the parties to collaborate on Quantron-as-a-Service bundling Fuel Cell powered commercial vehicles with Green H2.

The companies will collaborate to provide a joint offering based on hydrogen-powered electric vehicles from QUANTRON and the supply of hydrogen through a network of refuelling stations provided by Westgass Hydrogen. Westgass will also be the green H2 supply partner for a future dispensing network across Europe. QUANTRON sees the Nordics and its high hydrogen affinity in heavy duty as an ideal prooving ground for Quantron-as-a-service. This OEM-open ecosystem offers its customers through the Clean Transportation Alliance a 360-degree platform, including zero-emission vehicles as well as the associated infrastructure from green H2 generation to refuelling.
