Enagás, Disfrimur to develop hydrogen network in Spain
Fourteen stations are expected to be set up to support the introduction of hydrogen heavy-duty vehicles.
Enagás subsidiary Scale Gas is teaming up with Disfrimur to introduce hydrogen trucks and a new network of hydrogen stations in Spain.
The agreement includes that Scale Gas will supply stations located at Disfrimur’s operational bases.
The first station resulting will be located in San Isidro (Alicante) and is expected to start operating in 2024. It will enable hydrogen to be supplied to the first 20 hydrogen-powered vehicles in the fleet. A further 13 stations will be deployed in areas where Disfrimur has operational bases.
The agreement responds to the commitment of both companies to the decarbonisation of transport and the promotion of sustainable, competitive and quality mobility. Disfrimur will incorporate hydrogen into its portfolio of alternative fuels, allowing it to offer its customers logistics services tailored to their needs and with a zero carbon footprint.
In 2021 Scale Gas developed and inaugurated the first hydrogen refuelling station in Spain for long-range electric fuel cell vehicles (700 bar/Mpa). The Enagás subsidiary specialises in management of small and medium-scale infrastructures for the supply of alternative fuels to sectors that are difficult to electrify, thereby contributing to their decarbonisation.
