PRF Gas Solutions is excited to announce the start of construction for Portugal’s first fixed hydrogen refuelling station in Cascais, marking a significant advancement in the nation’s commitment to sustainable energy and green mobility. This pioneering project, executed under an EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) contract by PRF, signifies a major leap forward in the utilization of clean, renewable energy sources.
The new station will replace the existing DRHYVE portable hydrogen refuelling station, also developed by PRF, which has been operational since August 2021. Designed to serve both light and heavy vehicles, the station will offer hydrogen refueling at 350 bar and 700 bar. This will accommodate a variety of hydrogen-powered vehicles, including buses and passenger cars.
Key Features of the New Hydrogen Refueling Station:
- Local Hydrogen Production: The station will incorporate on-site hydrogen production using electrolyzers, ensuring a reliable and sustainable fuel supply.
- Comprehensive Refuelling Options: Capable of refuelling both light and heavy vehicles, with services available at both 350 bar and 700 bar.
- Public Accessibility: As the first public hydrogen refuelling station in Portugal, it will play a crucial role in promoting the adoption of hydrogen as a clean fuel alternative.
«We are incredibly proud to lead this groundbreaking project,» said Paulo Ferreira, CEO of PRF Gas Solutions. «The new hydrogen refuelling station in Cascais represents a monumental step towards a sustainable future, positioning Portugal at the forefront of energy innovation. Our goal is to provide clean, renewable energy solutions that meet the growing demand for green mobility.»
The construction of this new facility underscores PRF Gas Solutions’ commitment to sustainability and innovation. By leveraging its extensive experience in the fuel sector, PRF is poised to play a pivotal role in the transition to a hydrogen-based economy, ensuring cleaner air and a healthier environment for future generations.
