Hydrogen Station for Heavy Traffic Opened at the Port of Gothenburg

As one of the most truck-heavy locations in Sweden, the new station will exclusively supply green hydrogen.

A hydrogen refueling station for heavy traffic has opened at the Port of Gothenburg in Sweden. The site is located directly adjacent to one of the port’s busiest gates, which is also one of the most truck-heavy locations in the country.

The station is operated by Hydri, a company focused on building a Swedish hydrogen infrastructure network through around 20 hydrogen stations during 2024 and 2025. This is the first and is partially funded by the Swedish Energy Agency.

“The large flow of trucks to the port and the possibility to refuel work machinery make the location for this hydrogen refueling station ideal. Combined with several existing charging stations around the port, heavy land transport at the Port of Gothenburg is now fully ready for a transition to both electricity and hydrogen,” says Viktor Allgurén, Head of Innovation at the Port of Gothenburg.

The facility has been located right next to Gate 6 – the entrance to the Gothenburg RoRo Terminal and will exclusively supply green hydrogen.

The access road leading to the gate is one of Sweden’s most heavily trafficked roads, with 400,000 heavy vehicle passages every year.
