London, June 12, 2024 , (Oilandgaspress) –HYVIA, a joint-venture between Renault Group and Plug dedicated to hydrogen mobility, and HYPE, an independent pure player in zero-emission mobility and a pioneer in hydrogen taxis, have announced a partnership to accelerate decarbonized hydrogen mobility, supported by:
A shared vision: decarbonized hydrogen mobility is one of the solutions needed to make the necessary energy transition a success and meet the challenges of climate change and public health.
A goal: to rapidly develop the relevant uses of decarbonized hydrogen mobility, while securing the volume increase that will enable lower costs.
This partnership covers the entire ecosystem of H2 mobility: the supply of decarbonized hydrogen, H2 refueling stations and hydrogen vehicles, starting with:
Supply of decarbonized hydrogen: HYVIA’s 1 MW electrolyzer based at its Flins plant will supply HYPE’s Paris region refueling station network with decarbonized hydrogen.
Hydrogen refueling stations: trough its leasing offers, HYVIA will enable HYPE to deploy two H2 refueling stations by the end of 2024, including a HYWELL® station co-developed with Atawey and deployed with the support of the Maurin group, at RENAULT Corbeil-Essonnes dealership, contributing to the growth of the H2 refueling stations network in the Paris region. The first of these stations will go into service in the summer of 2024 at the HYPE site in Buc, developed in partnership with B.E. Green, the French specialist in zero-emission buses and coaches.
Hydrogen vans: for its intensive operations, HYPE will use a new L2H2 architecture, high-capacity Renault Master H2-TECH van supplied by HYVIA. A minimum of 9 additional vehicles will be delivered during 2024 to HYVIA’s customers around HYPE stations. These H2 vans will be financed by HYVIA and will be part of the Last Mile program by HYPE, supported by the Ile-de-France Region, ADEME and the European Connecting Europe Facility, to benefit from subsidies for hydrogen-powered commercial vehicles.
This partnership was made possible by the complementary nature of the solutions currently offered by the two partners:
HYVIA, with its unique and comprehensive ecosystem and financing solution, which enables the deployment of decarbonized hydrogen mobility projects.
HYPE, building on the strength of its integrated zero-emission platform – fleet and booking application dedicated to zero-emission taxis, green hydrogen distribution stations – and its Last Mile program by HYPE.
