Air Liquide has been chosen to supply two new hydrogen filling stations in Korea, designed and developed by the group’s Advanced Technologies teams.
Access to sustainable mobility is a major issue to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, pollution in cities and to lower the dependency on fossil fuels. Hydrogen, used as an energy vector, is one of the solutions to meeting those challenges.
To that end, Air Liquide has just been chosen to supply two new hydrogen filling stations in Korea, designed and developed by the group’s Advanced Technologies teams.
The first station, which will supply hydrogen at a pressure of 350 bars, will be delivered in the first quarter of 2010 for the government demonstration project – led by the automobile manufacturer Hyundai Motors. It will be installed within the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER), located on Jeju island.
The KIER, a research and development institute for renewable energy, is one of the beneficiaries of the South Korean government’s national plan to promote the development of hydrogen energy. The filling station will supply the new fuel cell vehicle developed by Hyundai Motors.
