Burckhardt Compression AG has been chosen by a global leader in industrial gas services to supply three high-performance, vertical, oil-free H2 compressors for a state-of-the-art hydrogen trailer filling facility in Northwestern Europe. The initiative aims to bolster the region’s green energy capabilities and highlights the growing importance of sustainable fuel alternatives.
The 450-bar hydrogen compressor packages, designed for high efficiency and reliability, can supply 250 kg/h of hydrogen. This capacity significantly enhances the operational efficiency of hydrogen fueling stations, filling approximately 35 cars or up to 8 trucks per hour. Equipped with Burckhardt Compression’s BC REDURA® and PERSISTO® oil-free sealing ring system technologies, these compressors will be delivered as single lift units, simplifying installation and maintenance processes.
Hydrogen Trailer Filling Facilities play a crucial role in the hydrogen fuel supply chain, enabling efficient distribution to fueling stations across various locations. Burckhardt Compression’s expertise in oil-free hydrogen compression solutions positions it as a key player in advancing sustainable mobility solutions.
Andreas Brautsch, president of the systems division of Burckhardt Compression, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to contribute to this groundbreaking project, stating, “We are honoured to be selected for this significant initiative. Our commitment to innovation and excellence in compression technology, coupled with our extensive experience in hydrogen applications, positions us to play a pivotal role in the global shift towards sustainable mobility solutions.”
This project underscores Burckhardt Compression’s leadership in industrial gas services and represents a major step forward in hydrogen infrastructure development, promising a cleaner, greener future for transportation across Europe and beyond.
