- , a specialist in hydrogen production, storage and distribution equipment, today announces its first contract for a 700 bar hydrogen station with H Mobility Deutschland, which is due to enter service in Berlin during the last quarter of 2019.

Nikolas Iwan, Managing Director H Mobility Deutschland GmbH & Co.KG:

Pascal Mauberger, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of McPhy, commented:

H Mobility Deutschland, a consortium of six leading industry players (Air Liquide, Daimler, Linde, OMV, Shell and Total), is a major project aiming to establish a dense network of hydrogen filling stations.

The consortium chose McFilling technology after conducting a rigorous selection process. McPhy will install a station delivering 200 kg in hydrogen per day at a 700 bar pressure (McFilling 200-700), cooled to -40°C and compliant with the SAE-J standard.

This station, which is designed to refuel 40 or so vehicles every day, is due to enter service in Berlin in the final quarter of 2019.

This new addition, McPhy's very first in the 700 bar station segment, will increase the number of McPhy stations to 14 and the daily potential of its stations to 50,500 km of zero emission mobility .

Hydrogen as an alternative clean fuel clearly represents a key success factor for the energy transition and the move to a lower-carbon society. Against this backdrop, mobility was identified as a key market in the Hydrogen Council report , which estimates there is a need for between 5,000 and 15,000 refilling stations by 2030. 

The French government has also committed to supporting the nationwide development of carbon-free hydrogen. To this end, the French government plans to invest €100 million in 2019 to support the roll-out of hydrogen and make France the world leader in the field. The priorities under the plan include the development of zero emission solutions for road, rail, and river transport, with the prospect by 2023 of around 5,000 light commercial vehicles, 200 heavy vehicles (buses, trucks, regional express trains, boats) and 100 stations supplied with locally produced clean hydrogen.

By extending its range of hydrogen stations with 700 bar and dual pressure (350 and 700 bar) models, McPhy is establishing itself to cover all clean mobility needs.

In the framework of the energy transition, and as a leading supplier of hydrogen production, storage and distribution equipment, McPhy contributes to the deployment of clean hydrogen throughout the world.

Thanks to its wide range of products and services dedicated to the hydrogen energy, zero emission mobility and industrial hydrogen markets, McPhy provides turnkey solutions to its clients. These solutions are tailored to our client applications: renewable energy surplus storage and valorization, fuel cell car refueling, raw material for industrial sites.

As a designer, manufacturer and integrator of hydrogen equipment since 2008, McPhy has three development, engineering and production units based in Europe (France, Italy, Germany).

The company's international subsidiaries ensure a global sales coverage of McPhy's innovative hydrogen solutions.
