Pursuing the development of its low-carbon hydrogen ecosystem in the Normandy industrial basin, Air Liquide will invest 50 million euros in a new hydrogen packaging and delivery supply chain to refueling stations along the Seine Axis, to support the acceleration of low-carbon mobility. The new packaging site will be supplied with renewable hydrogen from the Air Liquide Normand’Hy electrolyzer with a capacity of 200 MW currently under construction. This investment will contribute to the decarbonization of industry and mobility in the Normandy and Ile-de-France regions.
The establishment of this supply chain will support the growing number of hydrogen vehicles along the Seine Axis, from Le Havre to the Ile-de-France. This concerns both intensive mobility such as hydrogen taxis, which are expected to triple in number between 2023 and the end of 2024, and corporate fleets of light utility vehicles, as well as heavy mobility with hydrogen buses and trucks. Leveraging notably on long-term partnerships, including a contract to supply renewable hydrogen to HysetCo's fleet of vehicles, Air Liquide will dedicate around a quarter of the production capacity of its Air Liquide Normand’Hy electrolyzer to supplying renewable hydrogen for decarbonized transportation along the Seine Axis. This is equivalent to the consumption of 500 hydrogen trucks or 10,000 light vehicles.
