Air Products will build a network of commercial-scale, multi-modal hydrogen refuelling stations along Canada’s Queen Elizabeth II Highway, which runs through Calgary and Edmonton.
The industrial gas giant’s network will serve both heavy-duty vehicles, such as trucks and buses, as well as light-duty hydrogen fuel cell cars. The first station will be in Edmonton and is expected to be operational in 2025.
Rachel Smith, Vice-President and General Manager of Air Products Canada, said that each station will be able to fuel up to 200 heavy-duty trucks or 2,000 cars per day.
She continued, “In Canada, hydrogen is essential to decarbonising transportation, where heavy-duty vehicles travel long distances in extreme temperatures. We are excited to be activating Canada’s first hydrogen corridor here in Alberta.”
