OG Clean Fuels, Circle K collaborate on new hydrogen station in Sweden
Both companies will work in favour of the Tranzero Initiative, a strategy developed to accelerate the transition into cleaner fuels for the transportation sector.
OG Clean Fuels, in collaboration with Circle K, is building a hydrogen station for heavy traffic in Vädermotet, Sweden. in the. The constructión is part of an initiative to push the transition of the transport sector into alternative energies for land and maritime vehicles.
The venture to build a hydrogen filling station in the Port of Gothenburg is part of the Tranzero Initiative. This is an emission reduction strategy initiated by the Port of Gothenburg AB, the Volvo Group, Scania and Stena Line. The aim is to accelerate the transition of the transport sector to fossil-free alternatives such as green hydrogen.
"OG Clean Fuels is committed to contributing to a cleaner planet, and this is an important step on that journey. We want to be a leading player in hydrogen in Europe and this project fits in with our strategy. Going forward, we will continue to invest heavily in CBG, LBG, hydrogen and EV’s", said Marcel Borger, Founder and CEO of OG.
The station at Vädermotet will also be Circle K's first hydrogen station. The brand is also in the midst of a major expansion of electric charging, with a threefold expansion rate. The facility will initially have 6 charging points for heavy traffic, and is built from a truck perspective, which means good turning radius and that all charging points can be accessed from several directions by different types of trucks.
OG Clean Fuels currently operates 3 hydrogen stations in the Netherlands, with a fourth project in Hoofddorp/Schiphol having just started and the main components having just been installed.
