Wolftank Group builds first hydrogen refueling station for ACTIVA project in Spain

Wolftank Group (ISIN: AT0000A25NJ6) is setting another milestone in the expansion of its hydrogen business: as part of the European ACTIVA H2 project, the Group's Spanish subsidiary, Wolftank Iberia, is responsible for the technical implementation and construction of a compact, modular hydrogen refueling station in Spain. The aim of the project is to facilitate the introduction of hydrogen mobility in urban areas and in the Trans-European Transport (TEN-T) network.

The ACTIVA H2 project takes a pragmatic approach: The hydrogen refueling station will be planned in such a way that it can be installed on an area of just 20 square meters. The system is designed for flexible use and enables the refueling of light and heavy commercial vehicles at 350 and 700 bar.

Wolftank Iberia is the technology partner for the project and is responsible for the complete development and construction of the refueling station. The Wolftank Group is thus further expanding its position as a provider of infrastructure for alternative fuels in Spain. The prototype will be tested at the BMW Group's test site in Miramas in the south of France.

“The ACTIVA project aims to show how hydrogen technology can be economically scalable and quickly deployable. With our expertise in the construction of efficient and flexible refueling infrastructure, we are making a concrete contribution to the energy transition - not only in Spain, but throughout Europe," says Simon Reckla, CEO of the Wolftank Group. The Wolftank Group has extensive experience in the realization of large-scale hydrogen projects: In Italy, for example, hydrogen refueling stations for public transport buses are currently being built in the Emilia Romagna region with a project size of EUR 30 million. Also in Germany, the company is ready to support the national hydrogen strategy with viable infrastructure solutions.

The ACTIVA H2 project is funded by EIT Urban Mobility and implemented together with the partners Hidrógeno Verde Renovable (HVR Energy) and BMW Group. A roll-out of a further 20 mobile hydrogen filling stations is planned by HVR Energy - a company that focuses on the deployment of hydrogen infrastructure for mobility.

Spain is currently one of the most dynamic markets for hydrogen technology in Europe. More than 360 projects are currently being planned or implemented in the country. As part of its National Energy and Climate Plan (PNIEC), the Spanish government is aiming for an installed electrolysis capacity of 12 gigawatts by 2030. Against this background, the investment in ACTIVA H2 provides Wolftank Iberia with a promising starting point for further growth in the Spanish market.
