Air Products revealed its first hydrogen fueling station project for the 2022 Winter Olympics has been commissioned in Zhangjiakou in China’s Hebei Province, one of the host cities.

Built, owned and operated by Air Products, it represents the first of its kind hydrogen fueling station to serve this international event. The company is also building additional hydrogen fueling stations and hydrogen supply to support a green Winter Olympics and China’s sustainable development.

Located at the Taizicheng Service Area of Zhangjiakou where many skiing events will be held, the station project is built with Air Products’ state-of-the-art hydrogen for mobility technology and equipment. The station is a joint effort with local parties in Zhangjiakou City. With a filling capacity of 200 kg per day and a pressure of 70MPa, it can fuel the latest hydrogen fuel cell vehicle models, including the Toyota FCEV Coaster and MIRAI Gen 2. 

“We are very proud to help China make the 2022 Winter Olympics environmentally sustainable and leave a green legacy with our technologies, solutions and projects. It is our ongoing commitment to contribute to the country’s sustainable development in the 14th Five-Year Plan period and beyond. By driving hydrogen energy to promote zero-emission transportation together with our customers and partners, we will play our role to support the government’s '30·60' decarbonization goal,” Air Products China President Saw Choon Seong said.
