Akuo Energy, a French IPP in renewable energy, and Atawey, a French manufacturer of decentralised hydrogen refuelling stations, are set to deploy 33 refuelling stations across France.
The stations will provide fuel for 400 hydrogen-powered vehicles of JCDecaux, Galeries Lafayette and other companies in zero-emission urban mobility.
In February 2017 the European Commission launched the “CEF Transport Blending MAP Call” to finance innovative and sustainable projects to modernise European transport infrastructure.

In this respect, the companies will benefit from a European Union subsidy of €7m.
