“We are happy to have secured a significant H2Station® order for fueling of heavy duty vehicles in the U.S. As the deployment of hydrogen as a fuel for the heavy-duty sector is moving faster than expected, we are also gearing up our efforts and technology developments more toward offering solutions that can accommodate growth in this segment,” says Jon André Løkke, Chief Executive Officer of Nel.
