Hydrogen refuelling stations for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) are set to be built in the South West following a major deal. Element 2, a UK hydrogen refuelling business, signed the agreement with Tower Group, a distributor of the natural gas, which is building hydrogen hubs in Devon and Cornwall as part of a larger ecosystem it’s establishing in the region.
The partnership will connect Tower Group’s locally produced green hydrogen with the infrastructure required to supply fuel to hydrogen-powered trucks and haulage vehicles, Element 2 said.
As part of the deal, Element 2 will supply its mobile refuelling solutions as well as building permanent refuelling stations for hydrogen-powered HGVs along key haulage routes in Devon and Cornwall.
