McPhy Energy: Inauguration of France’s first refueling station for
hydrogen buses
Press release
Inauguration of France’s first refueling
station for hydrogen buses
- In the presence of the project’s partners on Friday June 21 in
Houdain, the Artois-Gohelle transport authority (SMT-AG)
inaugurated France’s first refueling station for hydrogen
buses
- The entire clean hydrogen production, storage and distribution
chain is equipped with McPhy technologies
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.

Pascal Mauberger, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
McPhy, states: “We are proud to contribute, with our
technologies and products, in this innovation in France that has
enabled us to set up, in the Hauts-de-France region of northern
France, the first McPhy station for hydrogen buses. With its
state-of-the-art research and innovation and first-rate industrial
infrastructure, McPhy provides its expertise in producing and
distributing hydrogen. Our McLyzer electrolyzer will produce on
site and from renewable electricity of certified French origin
supplied by ENGIE, the clean hydrogen for a high-capacity McFilling
hydrogen refueling station with a high service rate. The public
transport sector is in the midst of a revolution. By opting for
hydrogen mobility, the SMT-AG is combining passenger comfort and
service continuity while helping reduce atmospheric pollution and
improve public health. We would like to thank the SMT-AG and
our client, ENGIE, via its subsidiary GNVERT, for their
trust”. |
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.
