A new hydrogen refuelling station is coming to western Germany, designed to fuel 25 buses per day at 350 bar.
Norwegian infrastructure firm Cavendish Hydrogen has won the contract, worth €4-5m, with Danish hydrogen supplier Everfuel as subcontractor. The two have worked together before. Their stations in Frankfurt and Wuppertal now fuel between 20 and 40 buses daily and rank among the busiest in Europe.
The customer has not been named. Cavendish calls them "a leading and influential player in the German mobility sector" and promises a joint announcement later. Western Germany narrows it down but not by much.
Construction is split across 2026 and 2027. Permitting first, then build, then ongoing maintenance. The hydrogen will qualify as RFNBO under EU rules, produced at Everfuel's HySynergy plant in Denmark and trucked in.
Germany remains one of the more active markets for hydrogen buses. Municipal operators in particular have committed to fuel cell fleets where battery electric alternatives struggle with route length or depot charging constraints. Whether that logic holds as battery range improves is the longer question, but for now the orders keep coming.
