    NEOM’s ENOWA, Air Products Qudra to build first hydrogen fueling station

    (MENAFN) NEOM's water and electricity subsidiary, ENOWA, has signed an agreement with Air Products Qudra to build, own, and operate the first hydrogen fueling station for the giga-project. The station will help decarbonize heavy modes of transport, including buses and trucks, and construction is set to commence in the second half of the year. Air Products Qudra's CEO, Ebubekir Koyuncu, said that the company is looking forward to contributing its world-leading hydrogen expertise and fueling technology in support of NEOM's decarbonization goals. Producing and distributing clean hydrogen energy solutions for use in heavy-duty fuel cell vehicles, industrial applications, and energy storage is part of the company's DNA.

    Air Products Qudra will provide a large-scale decarbonizing solution, as well as the critical infrastructure for sustainability, to support NEOM's environmental development goals. ENOWA's CEO, Peter Terium, expressed his delight in partnering with Air Products Qudra in providing hydrogen-powered mobility solutions. Jointly, they aim to accelerate innovations in clean technologies fueled by green hydrogen and contribute to hydrogen mobility markets and a sustainable future of global decarbonization.

    NEOM is Saudi Arabia's USD500 billion giga-city aimed at changing the traditional residential and work lifestyle through eco-friendly activity. ENOWA, on the other hand, acts as an incubator for developing new, sustainable energy and water businesses while boosting the economic sector regionally. Air Products Qudra, for its part, is a joint venture between development and investment company Air Products Middle East and Qudra Energy, which is Vision Invest’s industrial gases and composites arm.

    Air Products Qudra also signed a memorandum of understanding last year with the Royal Commission for Jubail to establish the first hydrogen fuel station in Jubail. With its expertise in hydrogen fueling technology and its commitment to sustainability, Air Products Qudra is well-positioned to help NEOM achieve its decarbonization goals. The hydrogen fueling station is just one of the many innovative solutions NEOM is exploring to reduce its carbon footprint and promote sustainable development. The project is a significant step forward in the global transition towards renewable energy and sustainable transportation.
