Old NAM site near Gasselternijveenschemond gets new life as hydrogen refuelling station

Het tankstation voor auto’s en vrachtwagens moet komen op een oude gaswinningslocatie van de NAM aan de Gasselternijveenschedreef.
Een oude NAM-locatie in het Drentse Gasselternijveenschemond moet een waterstoftankstation voor auto's en trucks gaan krijgen.

Entrepreneur Roelof-Jan Wollerich from Drouwenermond and construction companies Avitec and Novar want to build a hydrogen and electricity filling station near the Drenthe village of Gasselternijveenschemond. The filling station for cars and trucks is to come on an old NAM gas extraction site on the Gasselternijveenschedreef.

This writes RTV Drenthe. The hydrogen will come from a new sustainable production site in Nieuw-Buinen. The intention is for the hydrogen to reach the filling station via a former gas pipeline between Emmen and Eemshaven, although this has not yet been finalised. The initiators want to generate their own electricity there with a small solar park. The construction companies involved assume that in the future, twelve trucks, mainly from potato processor Avebé, and one hundred to two hundred cars will use the filling station daily. Hydrogen-powered agricultural tractors can also go there.

In the AA and Hunze region in which Gasselternijveenschemond is located, there is no possibility to refuel with hydrogen yet. The closest locations are at least 25 kilometres away: Green Planet in Pesse, where cars and trucks can fill up with hydrogen, and the Shell filling station on Phileas Foggstraat in Emmen, where only trucks can get hydrogen.

The plan is part of the H2Hollandia project, a project to make hydrogen available for mobility. The site is located on the gas pipeline from Emmen to Eemshaven, with the location in Nieuw-Buinen as the site for hydrogen production. The existing gas pipeline will be used to transport hydrogen, meaning no new pipelines will need to be laid. It will also provide its own energy supply through the use of solar panels.
