This pioneering centre at Villab\u00e9, Essonne, 30 km south of Paris, is powered by a state-of-the-art green hydrogen refuelling station and a dedicated maintenance facility for hydrogen-powered heavy goods vehicles (HGVs).<\/p>\n
\u201cThe HGV fuel chain, which has been developing for several months, is now ready and complete \u2013 we\u2019re proud to be part of France\u2019s first centre of excellence for hydrogen trucks,\u201d said Matthieu Guesn\u00e9, founder and CEO of Lhyfe.<\/p>\n
\u201cHaulage operators need hydrogen vehicles, green hydrogen, refuelling stations and maintenance centres to service them. This complete chain has just been inaugurated in the Paris region, and it\u2019s a major step forward for hydrogen mobility.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cleaner haulage<\/strong><\/p>\n The announcement of the centre, which should go into operation in September, comes just weeks after Hyliko\u2019s hydrogen trucks began commercial operations for companies like Point P, Berto Group, Labatut and Toyota.<\/p>\n It\u2019s capable of 350-bar refuelling (with plans to increase to 700 bars), which allows HGVs to refuel in just 20 minutes using green hydrogen produced by Lhyfe. <\/p>\n The first hydrogen vehicles retrofitted by Hyliko are already being used on the road by Point P\u2019s haulage operators, the Berto Group and Labatut LVI, as well as by Bert&You and Toyota.<\/p>\n Lhyfe produces green and renewable hydrogen through the electrolysis of water, at production units powered by renewable energy.<\/p>\n Launched in 2017, the company inaugurated its first site in 2021 and today has four installed sites and several sites under construction across Europe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hyliko has unveiled France\u2019s first hydrogen truck centre marking a major step forward in zero-emissions haulage in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":4483,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,34],"tags":[40,326,36,1691,1692,1423,145,151],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-4482","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alternative-fuels-greenport","category-europe-greenport","tag-alternative-fuels","tag-france","tag-green-hydrogen","tag-haulage","tag-hyliko","tag-lhyfe","tag-logistics","tag-trucks"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4482","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4482"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4482\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4484,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4482\/revisions\/4484"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4482"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4482"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4482"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=4482"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
