Air Products, a world-leading supplier of hydrogen and hydrogen for mobility solutions, announced it has commissioned its first hydrogen fueling station in Shandong Province for fueling buses and trucks to support China's "Hydrogen into Ten Thousand Homes" demonstration project and green transportation. The company has accelerated several hydrogen production and application projects in the province in support of this national project.

The "Hydrogen into Ten Thousand Homes" demonstration project is a high-level project initiated by China's Ministry of Science and Technology in cooperation with Shandong provincial government to promote the comprehensive utilization of hydrogen energy and demonstrate hydrogen applications in industrial parks, community buildings and transportation to create a hydrogen-powered society.

Built, owned and operated by Air Products, and a joint effort with the local government, the station located in Huantai County of Zibo City is the company's first and also one of the first hydrogen fueling stations in Shandong.  It is built to world-class standards and equipped with the company's patented fueling technology and two state-of-the-art dispensers, with hydrogen energy supplied by the company's production facility in Zibo. The station can fuel several fleets of public buses and trucks used for logistics.

"Shandong has a strategic roadmap with clear targets for hydrogen development. As a leader in hydrogen and hydrogen for mobility, Air Products is honored to contribute our expertise, technologies and end-to-end solutions to this strategic demonstration project that will greatly drive the development of hydrogen energy in the province and across the country," said Saw Choon Seong, Air Products China president. "We are committed to continuing to support China's 14th Five-Year Plan and '30·60' decarbonization goal to drive sustainable development, together with local governments, our customers and partners."
