Air Products Receives Funding To Build Two Large-Scale Hydrogen Refueling Stations In The Region Of North-Rhine Westphalia Nordrhein Westfalen; No Financial Terms Disclosed
Air Products, a world-leading industrial gases company, today received funding from the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Industry, Climate Protection and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) to build two high-capacity, publicly accessible, low-carbon Hydrogen Refueling Stations (HRS) in Duisburg and Meckenheim. This marks another milestone as the company continues building a European network of hydrogen refueling stations that will provide heavy duty and long-range vehicles with low-carbon energy for zero-emission fleets.
世界領先的工業氣體公司空氣產品公司今天獲得了北萊茵-威斯特法倫州（NRW）經濟、工業、氣候保護和能源部的資助，用於在杜伊斯堡和梅肯海姆建造兩個高容量、可公開使用的低碳氫氣加氫站（HRS）。這標誌着又一個里程碑，因爲該公司將繼續建設歐洲氫氣加氣站網絡，該網絡將爲零排放車隊提供低碳能量的重型和遠程車輛。
The two new stations will be located near Air Products' current German headquarters in Hattingen, where Air Products has operated for more than 60 years. With the funding received, Air Products will build, own and operate the two high-capacity HRSs capable of fueling a range of vehicles including medium and heavy-duty classes. Supplied with the company's own hydrogen, the refueling stations will offer a network of reliable and fast HRSs for trucks in Germany and ultimately support the ramping up of zero-emission fleets.
這兩個新加油站將位於空氣產品公司目前位於哈廷根的德國總部附近，空氣產品公司在那裏運營了60多年。有了這筆資金，空氣產品公司將建造、擁有和運營兩臺大容量 HRS，能夠爲包括中型和重型車輛在內的一系列車輛加油。這些加氣站由該公司自己的氫氣供應，將爲德國的卡車提供可靠而快速的HRS網絡，並最終支持零排放車隊的擴大。
This NRW funding to support Hydrogen Fueling Infrastructure represents an important advancement in the company's ongoing efforts to help its customers reduce global carbon emissions and contribute to a more sustainable future. As the world's largest hydrogen supplier, Air Products has hands-on operating experience with over 250 hydrogen fueling station projects in 20 countries, with the company's technologies used in over 1.5 million fueling operations annually. The company is already planning to build large-scale, renewable hydrogen production facilities in Europe and is committed to increasing its European network of HRSs. In Germany, these two new fueling stations will join the already announced HRS in Hürth-Knapsack.
這筆用於支持氫燃料基礎設施的NRW資金代表了該公司爲幫助其客戶減少全球碳排放和爲更可持續的未來做出貢獻所做的持續努力中的一項重要進展。作爲全球最大的氫氣供應商，空氣產品公司在 20 個國家擁有 250 多個氫氣加氣站項目的實踐運營經驗，該公司的技術每年用於超過 150 萬個加氣業務。該公司已經計劃在歐洲建造大規模的可再生氫氣生產設施，並致力於擴大其歐洲HRS網絡。在德國，這兩個新的加油站將加入已經宣佈的Hurth-Knapsack的HRS。
Funding for the stations was made available as part of NRW's hydrogen roadmap. NRW has set ambitious goals to decarbonize heavy-duty transportation and has set a target of having 11,000 hydrogen fuel cell trucks in the region by 2030. NRW also has set additional 2030 goals of having 3,800 fuel cell buses for public transportation and 200 hydrogen fueling stations.
作爲北威州氫氣路線圖的一部分，爲這些加氣站提供了資金。北威州設定了實現重型運輸脫碳的雄心勃勃的目標，並設定了到2030年在該地區擁有11,000輛氫燃料電池卡車的目標。北威州還設定了2030年的額外目標，即擁有3,800輛用於公共交通的燃料電池公交車和200個氫氣加氣站。
"This funding brings heavy-duty vehicle ready stations to the region. We are excited to be able to support first-mover truck operators looking to test and integrate hydrogen fuel cell trucks into their fleets," said Jorg Homberg, General Manager for Air Products Germany.
“這筆資金爲該地區提供了重型車輛準備站。我們很高興能夠爲希望測試氫燃料電池卡車並將其整合到車隊中的先行卡車運營商提供支持，“德國空氣產品公司總經理約爾格·霍姆伯格說。
Mrs. Mona Neubaur, Minister for Economic Affairs, Industry, Climate Protection and Energy and Deputy Prime Minister of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia in the Würst II cabinet said, "Hydrogen is an important component for climate-neutral heavy goods transport in North Rhine-Westphalia. Hydrogen trucks have long ranges and short refueling times. This will ensure the competitiveness of logistics companies. In order to be able to rely on emission-free drives in heavy goods transport in the future, we must create the conditions now. The development of hydrogen infrastructure must be significantly accelerated. We are creating an important incentive for the expansion of the urgently needed filling station network in North Rhine-Westphalia."
Wuürst II內閣中經濟事務、工業、氣候保護和能源部長兼北萊茵-威斯特法倫州副總理莫娜·諾伊鮑爾夫人說：”氫氣是北萊茵-威斯特法倫州氣候中和重型貨物運輸的重要組成部分。氫氣卡車續航里程長，加油時間短。這將確保物流公司的競爭力。爲了將來能夠在重型貨物運輸中依賴無排放驅動，我們必須立即創造條件。必須大大加快氫基礎設施的發展。我們正在爲擴大北萊茵-威斯特法倫州急需的加油站網絡創造重要的激勵措施。”
