Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group received multiple contracts to provide over a dozen H₂ fueling stations to customers in California and South Korea. These stations, intended to be operational between Q4 2023 and Q2 2024, cover fueling stations for light-duty, heavy-duty, and transit fuel cell vehicles that need H35 and H70 dispensing.

The purchase orders have a combined value of almost $60 MM. Nikkiso has dedicated over 150,000 ft² (14,000 m²) square feet of floor space to mass produce H₂ fueling stations in Murrieta, CA, Escondido, CA, Busan, S. Korea, and Neuenbürg, Germany. Every station will be manufactured to comply with the local content requirements, including the Buy America Act for the U.S. H₂ hub market.

Starting with these H₂ station projects, the Nikkiso Group aims to further expand their H₂-related business by strengthening their participation in the H₂ supply chain and expanding into the global market.

"As an ambassador member of the California Fuel Cell Partnership (CaFCP) and core leader of cryogenic technology, Nikkiso is key in connecting the hydrogen ecosystem to advance the clean energy agenda," said Peter Wagner, CEO of Nikkiso CE&IG.

"We are pleased to offer flexible and scalable commercial and technical offers where our customers need us the most: from equipment fabricator to turnkey EPC solutions,” said Joseph Pak, President of the Nikkiso Integrated Cryogenic Solutions.
