VIEW Linde standard hydrogen filling station
with IC90 compressor
DETAILS
Sweden’s largest and Stockholm’s first hydrogen fuelling station
for fuel-cell cars was opened in Arlanda yesterday by
* Bo Dyrvold, CEO of AGA,
the Swedish subsidiary of The Linde Group.
At the opening ceremony Christian Norberg,
* Acting Managing Director of Hyundai in Sweden, and
* Xavier Heylen, Managing Director at Toyota Sverige AB,
talked about each company’s focus on fuel-cell cars.
The new hydrogen fuelling station
in the vicinity of Stockholm’s airport has
a capacity of 180 fillings with a pressure of 700 bars per day.
It takes only three minutes to fill the car up
and the range is approximately 500 kilometres
on a full hydrogen tank.
Fuel-cell cars run on hydrogen converted to electricity
and emit only water vapour.
The hydrogen comes from AGA’s facility in Sandviken,
where water is split into hydrogen and oxygen
with green electricity in an electrolyser.
The hydrogen fuelling station is supported by the EU
via the HIT-2 project (Hydrogen Infrastructure for Transport).
The Linde Group, which AGA is a part of,
is a world leader in hydrogen technology.
Having set up approximately 100 hydrogen fuelling stations
in 15 countries and having successfully completed
over one million refuelling operations,
Linde is leading the way in hydrogen infrastructure development.
