H2 Mobility Austria aims for 2,000 fuel-cell trucks by 2030
A study by Deloitte estimated the plans would bring Austria an added value of €475 million.
H2 Mobility Austria, a consortium of eleven Austrian companies, aims to put around 2,000 hydrogen trucks on the roads of the Alpine Republic by 2030. A study by Deloitte estimated the plans would bring Austria an added value of €475 million.
Deloitte was commissioned by the consortium to explore the potential for hydrogen mobility in heavy-duty transport. The report calculated potential savings of 70 million litres of diesel for the 2,000 hydrogen fuel cell trucks, reports electrive.com.
According to the paper, the projected €475 million in value-added will be generated by producing green hydrogen in Austria and the necessary filling station infrastructure.
H2 Mobility Austria wants to create the appropriate framework conditions in the next two years in cooperation with the government. The group follows the example of Germany, where H2 Mobility now operates around 90 stations.
