Inauguration of France's first refueling station for hydrogen buses

La Motte-Fanjas (France), June 26, 2019 – 8:30 am (CEST) - McPhy (Euronext Paris Compartment C: MCPHY, FR0011742329) , a specialist in hydrogen production and distribution equipment, is equipping the first refueling station for hydrogen buses in France with its McLyzer and McFilling technologies.

First 100% hydrogen bus line in France

The SMT-AG has attributed to ENGIE, via its subsidiary GNVERT, the design, supply, installation and maintenance of the Houdain-Divion hydrogen gas distribution station. It will enable the refueling of six hydrogen buses that will be deployed on the new BHNS (High Level Service Bus) bus line connecting Bruay-La-Buissière and Auchel.

This innovative project is equipped with McLyzer and McFilling technologies. Clean hydrogen will be produced on site by electrolysis, from renewable electricity of certified French origin, before being distributed by the station. Fifteen minutes of refueling will give the buses over 300 km of autonomy.

In its current configuration, the McPhy station can produce and deliver more than 200 kg of clean hydrogen a day. Its capacity can be increased by 30% without changing the facility's total surface area, if required by the SMT-AG's future needs.

A genuine innovation in France, this 100% hydrogen bus line and its dedicated refueling station are precursors of the “zero emission mobility” revolution that is becoming increasingly widespread in France, Europe and globally.
