HYVIA unveils Renault Master Van H2-TECH prototype
– Zero CO2 emissions*, increased range, and fast refueling time.
– A large van for transporting goods, with 12m3 of cargo volume and a range of up to 500km, available in 2022.
– Equipped with a 30kW fuel cell that will be assembled in France by the end the year.
– Vehicle, e-motor and hydrogen integration are also made in France.
HYVIA unveils its Hydrogen Refueling Station prototype
– To offer customer convenient refueling options where public hydrogen infrastructure is still in development.
– Fast refueling time, simple and safe to use.
– Assembly in France by the end of the year.
These prototypes are a first illustration of the unique and complete HYVIA ecosystem including green hydrogen production and distribution, with a range of fuel cell-powered light commercial vehicles.
Meet HYVIA at Hyvolution tradeshow in Paris on Oct 27,28.
Made in France:
– Renault Master Van is produced in France, at Batilly plant.
– Electric and hydrogen integration is realized by PVI, a Renault Group subsidiary in GretzArmainvilliers.
– e-motor is produced at Cleon plant.
– Fuel cell assembly will begin at Flins plant by the end of the year.
– The hydrogen tanks will be sourced in France, from Faurecia.
HYVIA’s Hydrogen Refueling Station allows fast fueling time: 5 minutes, as simple as thermic, to maximize vehicle availability.
The way this station operate is simple:
– Hydrogen supplied will either be generated on-site using water electrolysis or supplied in bulk using gaseous tube trailers.
– The system compresses H2 into storage, before dispensing it into the vehicle when needed.
And it’s all about safety: our systems are designed to meet all regulations and best practices.
HYVIA’s Hydrogen Refueling Stations will be available to purchase, lease or rent.
They will be assembled in France, at Flins factory.
These prototypes are a first illustration of the HYVIA ecosystem including green hydrogen production (electrolyzers) and distribution (Hydrogen refueling Station), with a range of fuel cell-powered light commercial vehicles (Van, Chassis Cab and Citybus), complementary to battery electric vehicles.
* When driving, neither CO2 nor other regulated air pollutants, in accordance with the WLTP certification.
