Hynion signs an attractive land agreement at the truck stop in Västerås.
Hynion once again advances its position as the leading operator of hydrogen refueling stations in Sweden. This time by signing a land agreement at the truck stop in Västerås, STOP128.
Hynion has been granted a grant of SEK 61.4 million from the Swedish Energy Agency to build two hydrogen refueling stations with a capacity of 1,500 kg of hydrogen per day. The stations are to be completed in 2023. A land agreement was recently signed in the Torsvik logistics area south of Jönköping. Now Hynion signs another land agreement at the STOP128 truck stop in Västerås.
STOP128 is a modern truck stop with fenced parking, direct connection to E18, restaurant, several different fuel stations and a full-service workshop with truck wash hall. The truck stop is a natural hub for commercial heavy traffic in Västerås and is close to ICA’s central warehouse. In the region, there are many companies that operate significant vehicle fleets and that have already shown an interest in starting a transition to fossil-free vehicles.

We in Västerås municipality see this project as an important milestone in the work that the municipality does in the area of sustainability.
