Located in the heart of the International Market of Rungis, this McFilling station with a capacity of 20kg/day (in the first part of the project) supplies the hydrogen-powered fleet of Renault Kangoo Z.E. utility vehicles, made available for long-term rental through Alphabet, a leader in mobility solutions for businesses.

Rungis Market: a precursor of zero-emission mobility!

With a traffic of more than 25,000 vehicles per day, the Rungis Market, which offers free highway tolls to all clean vehicles, is a strategic location for the development of clean mobility for freight transport in the Ile-de-France Region.

In the second part of the project, as the fleet of H₂ vehicles in southern Paris increases, the station will be upgraded to an 80kg/day capacity and connected to an electrolyzer.

A pioneering and accelerating project for zero emission mobility.

Inaugurated on September 21^st, 2019, this first hydrogen station in the “Centre Val de Loire” Region is fully in line with the region’s development strategy.

The HySOPARC project embodies the dynamism of the territories in favor of the deployment of clean mobility solutions, including hydrogen mobility. It allows the “Communauté de Communes Touraine Vallée de l’Indre” to affirm its hydrogen strategy and to position itself as a regional precursor for the deployment of hydrogen mobility.

McPhy has been selected in 2017 by Riversimple an innovative car manufacturer and mobility services company to provide it with a first hydrogen station to supply its fleet of innovative hydrogen vehicles “Rasa” with clean energy.

In 2017, McPhy supplied a refueling station, the first McPhy reference in the United Kingdomn hydrogen station market. The Welsh company is reinventing clean mobility by commercializing a passenger vehicle in the form of “leasing”, a unique all-inclusive subscription, and is helping to reduce the environmental and public health impacts of transport.

The Rasa is a two-seater vehicle capable of covering 500 km with a tank of only 1.6 kg of hydrogen at a 350 bar pressure.

Perfectly adapted to the technical characteristics of the vehicle, the McFilling 20-350 will allow its users to fill up with hydrogen in less than 5 minutes for a range of 500 km without impacting health or the environment. Riversimple and McPhy, both pioneers of clean hydrogen technologies, are working together to develop zero emission mobility at a competitive price.

Committed to driving clean energy forward

“We are very pleased that Riversimple has chosen our McFilling solution to support the development project of its innovative “Rasa” vehicle, which heralds the future of competitive clean mobility. The Riversimple team, which we welcomed to the demonstration platform of our hydrogen stations in France, shares our vision: “Committed to driving clean energy forward”. This contract allows us to enter the UK hydrogen mobility market which is taking off.” | Pascal Mauberger, Chairman and CEO of McPhy.

This station was inaugurated during the COP21 (2015). This project is in line with both the ambitious mobility plan being adopted by the City of Paris as well as the objectives of combating pollution and global warming, which were reaffirmed during COP21.

McPhy designed, manufactured and integrated this hydrogen station capable of fueling up to 15 vehicles per day (McFilling 20-350) at a 350 bar dispensing pressure.

“By winning this call for tenders by France’s most important city with our partner, Idex, McPhy Energy has once again demonstrated the perfect alignment of its offering of modular refuelling stations with the needs for deploying soft hydrogen infrastructure that is easily integrated at the local level in major urban regions. We are particularly proud of being able to demonstrate in this way the relevance of hydrogen mobility as a means of reducing the emission of pollutants in the transportation sector during an event of such symbolic importance as the COP21”
| declared Pascal MAuberger, McPhy Energy’s Chairman and CEO.

A first reference for McPhy in maritime mobility sector.

Located in Rovaltain, a few kilometers away from La Motte Fanjas where it was manufactured, our HRS is dedicated to supplying 20 kg of hydrogen per day, at 350 bar, to refuel up to 20 utility vehicles daily (on-site average).

Among them, the Kangoos H₂-ZE of the community and the neighboring companies, such as McPhy, of course, and companies like Crouzet, AdVenta and Crédit Agricole as well. And this is only the first stage: about 40 companies have declared that they are interested in hydrogen mobility!

Nicolas DARAGON, President of Valence Romans, talking about the hydrogen station:
“Our approach is pragmatic: we, as a community, have to fight against air pollution to protect our citizens’ health.
This first hydrogen refueling station in Drôme gives a strong message.
I am glad of our pioneering spirit, and I’d like to thank all of the stakeholders who made this project come true: our services of course, but also local companies such as McPhy, who’s a major player in the cutting-edge field of hydrogen.
We hope to inspire other communities and see more and more hydrogen stations throughout local governments.”

Located at the Berlin Airport, this demonstration project is designed to produce “green” hydrogen from a surplus of wind power using an electrolyzer and using solid-state storage to create a hydrogen cogeneration plant and hydrogen filling-station infrastructure for buses and cars.

Renewable energy from the Enertrag wind farm near the new airport in Berlin will be converted into hydrogen by a McPhy electrolyzer, to smooth out energy fluctuations and store surplus wind energy.

Total and Linde will build the infrastructure necessary to distribute this fuel to buses and automobiles powered by fuel cells.

In addition, new-generation McPhy solid-state hydrogen-storage will allow the 2G power station to provide electricity or heat from stored hydrogen, flexibly and on demand.

The interests of this project are multiple:

• To produce zero-emission fuel for cars or buses running on hydrogen and/or supply other hydrogen filling stations.
• To re-inject surplus renewable energy into the natural gas network or the power grid.
• To optimize a system that is subject to high constraints with regard to electrical power supply and implement several technological elements.

Since 2018, with three electrolyzers and two storage modules, McPhy offers a complete solution adapted to the significant increase in hydrogen requirements of the Utility Services Unit (PUS) located at the heart of the scientific cluster on the CEA Minatec site in Grenoble.

Guaranteeing industrial performance and energy independence while reducing the environmental footprint of the PUS.

As part of this industrial & mobility project, McPhy designed a production and storage unit offering a suitable response to the significant increase in hydrogen requirements of the Utilities Services Unit.

This production unit demonstrates the potential of zero-carbon hydrogen produced by electrolysis for industry. It is intended to supply hydrogen to CEA’s industrial processes and to the GEG (Gaz Électricité Grenoble) hydrogen station which powers the HyWay project (zero emissions mobility).

The hydrogen production unit is composed of three alkaline electrolyzers which will produce up to 150,000 m³ of hydrogen per year. The hydrogen produced is compressed at 200 bar in a gaseous form; and at 30 bar in a solid form via the McPhy hydrogen storage technology.
