TotalEnergies’ hydrogen filling station on the Van der Landeweg in Deventer drastically reduced the price for a kilo of hydrogen at the pump on Thursday. Whereas most hydrogen filling stations in the Netherlands charge a kilo price of around 20 euros, TotalEnergies in Deventer is now by far the cheapest in the Netherlands at 11.98 euros.

This is according to data from H2.live. According to the website, the Netherlands currently has 23 publicly accessible hydrogen filling stations where, in most cases, both passenger cars and trucks can fill up with hydrogen. The number of hydrogen filling stations in the Netherlands should start to increase in the coming years. Prices for a kilo of hydrogen have been high in our country for years: most hydrogen stations charge more than 20 euros at the pump for a kilo of hydrogen. Fountain Fuel’s hydrogen filling station in Amersfoort currently charges 18.95 euros for a kilo of hydrogen, according to H2.live, at Green Planet in Pesse in Drenthe a kilo can be filled up for 19.95 euros and at Hysolar Greenpoint in Nieuwegein it costs 20.29 euros per kilo. The BP gas station of Kerkhof & Zn in The Hague takes the crown with 25 euro for a kilo of hydrogen. On average, a car can drive about 100 kilometres on a kilogram of hydrogen, giving a total range of about 500 to 600 kilometres with a full tank of 5 to 6 kilograms. This quickly brings a refuelling charge for a hydrogen-powered car to well over EUR 100. The average national recommended retail price for a litre of Euro 95 stands at 2.182 euros as of 5 December, according to United Consumers, with a 40-litre fill-up coming to around 87 euros.

Cheapest

With at the pump a price of 11.98 euro for a kilo of hydrogen, the TotalEnergies in Deventer will be by far the cheapest location in the Netherlands to fill up with hydrogen as of Thursday. While sky-high hydrogen refuelling prices have so far deterred consumers and businesses from switching to the clean fuel, analysts point to signs of falling hydrogen prices in Europe. German truck rental company Hylane, for instance, offers hydrogen to its users for 8 euros per kilo. For its part, Belgian filling station formula DATS24, part of the Colruyt Group, charges 9.99 euros for a kilo of hydrogen at the six locations it has in Belgium.

One hundred

The hydrogen filling station in Deventer, to be opened in October 2024 near the A1 motorway slip road, has been realised by TEAL Mobility, a joint venture between TotalEnergies and Air Liquide. The organisation aims to establish more than 100 hydrogen stations for heavy vehicles on major European roads, mainly in the Benelux countries, France and Germany, in the coming years. TEAL Mobility is also part of the H2 Mobility joint venture, which operates hydrogen stations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. In France, the company has a stake in HysetCo, which develops hydrogen stations and operates hydrogen vehicle fleets such as taxis in the Île-de-France region.
