(Porsgrunn / Norway) – The Norwegian developer and operator of hydrogen filling stations Hynion AS and the recycling company Boson Energy SA want to examine how hydrogen produced from the gasification of non-recyclable waste can be marketed through filling stations. The synthesis gas produced using Boson Energy technology enables the local production of “carbon-negative hydrogen at low cost in significant quantities,” the companies said.
In order to distribute the hydrogen to vehicles, one or more filling stations would have to be integrated into each gasification system. These stations are of the same design as the large stations that Hynion is currently building in Västerås and Jönköping.

As reported, the station in Västerås, Sweden, will be installed at a truck rest area owned by the operator Stop 128 AB, directly on the E18. There are already liquid biogas (LBG), liquid natural gas (LNG), biodiesel (RME 100) and charging stations for electric vehicles. Hynion recently received building permits for the hydrogen filling station.

Another station is being built in the Torsvik logistics area in Jönköping, also in Sweden. The company received a grant of 61,4 million crowns (5,2 million euros) from the Swedish Energy Agency for both plants. The capacity for hydrogen production is a cumulative 1.500 kilograms per day. The stations are scheduled to be commissioned in January 2024.
Boson Energy has already set its sights on several locations in Sweden and other countries. The investment decisions for the first systems are expected in the next few months. Founded in 2008, the company is based in Luxembourg and is represented in Sweden, Poland, Germany and Israel.
