Wolftank Group further strengthens hydrogen positioning with new orders totaling EUR 10 million
Hydrogen filling stations for public buses in Carinthia and South Tyrol
Strategic step into new market segment: hydrogen refueling of construction machinery
Wolftank Group AG (ISIN: AT0000A25NJ6), a leading provider of environmental and energy solutions, is underlining its innovative role in the field of green mobility and strengthening its position in the hydrogen sector with a series of new orders. In the project presented on Friday by the state of Carinthia for Austria’s first hydrogen bus fleet in regional transport, Wolftank Group is building a hydrogen filling station for refueling 35 public buses in Villach on behalf of project partner GUTMANN GmbH. It will also be responsible for its maintenance for ten years. The total value of the contract is around EUR 5.3 million.
In South Tyrol, the Wolftank Group, in collaboration with Gemmo SpA, will build a hydrogen filling station for SASA SpA – AG in Merano. This will ensure the S?Aoperation of 15 hydrogen buses and other vehicles with 700-bar technology. With an order volume of EUR 3 million, this project represents an important milestone for public transport in the region. Wolftank Group already built the first hydrogen filling station for SASA in Bolzano in 2021 and was awarded the contract to expand this filling station together with Gemmo at the beginning of 2024.
New market segment: hydrogen refueling of construction machinery
With a significant new project, Wolftank Group is opening up a new market segment for its hydrogen technology: after refueling buses and trains in public transport and forklift trucks in the intralogistics sector, the company is now starting a new assignment in the construction machinery and mining sector. Wolftank is installing a container-based hydrogen refueling station for a pilot project in which a hydrogen-powered large wheel loader will be used in an Austrian quarry. This flexible and transportable solution enables the decarbonization of a heavily polluting sector and underlines the innovative strength of the Wolftank Group. The project volume amounts to EUR 1.8 million.ü
Peter Werth, CEO of the Wolftank Group, explains :
For many hard-to-electrify industries, hydrogen is the only realistic solution that makes a decisive contribution to decarbonization.
“Our refueling technology offers a unique combination of flexibility, efficiency and sustainability for hydrogen-powered construction machinery,”
“This is a future-oriented market in which we see long-term prospects and great potential.”
