HRS receives an order from TOTAL for a latest generation hydrogen refueling station
Champ-sur-Drac, March 11, 2021 – HRS, European designer and manufacturer of hydrogen refueling stations, today announces that it has received a new order from Total Marketing France, a subsidiary of Total, to supply and install a dual-pressure hydrogen refueling station on the site of one of its customers.
The 200 kg per day station, designed specifically to meet the needs of Total's teams, will be able to refuel all types of vehicles simultaneously thanks to its dual-pressure high-flow system (two distribution pressures: 350 and 700 bars). It will have an extended hydrogen storage capacity of 190 kg and will be designed to be easily dismantled and transported, to be quickly installed again at other sites, a first in Europe.
The station will be delivered and commissioned within a short timeframe, no later than June 2021, thanks to the proven efficiency of HRS's industrial organization, which once again demonstrates its unique ability to respond quickly to market demands.
This first cooperation with Total is a further step in the rollout of hydrogen mobility and an additional contribution to the energy transition.
Hassen Rachedi, Chairman and CEO of HRS, said: “This new order from one of the world's leading energy companies is a great source of satisfaction for HRS . We are proud to have succeeded in just a few months in developing a transportable state-of-the-art station meeting the specific requirements of Total's project. This first collaboration is promising for potential ambitious joint hydrogen projects.”
Philippe Callejon, Mobility and New Energies Director at Total Marketing France, said: “As a multi-energy company and mobility solutions provider, Total is a pioneer in the development of hydrogen as a fuel, particularly in Germany since 2002. To facilitate the development of the hydrogen ecosystem, it is essential to combine captive fleets and adequate infrastructure. With this transportable and high-capacity HRS solution, Total can offer its customers an innovative turnkey temporary rental solution that can be quickly deployed to address their experimental operational needs (for bus, household refuse collection, heavy goods or utility vehicle fleets).”
