Bavaria's Deputy Minister for Economic Affairs and Energy, Tobias Gotthardt, today handed over the funding certificate worth 2 million euros to the company H2 Mobility for the construction of a public hydrogen filling station on the A6 motorway, exit Amberg-Ost. It will offer refueling options for buses and trucks (350 bar) as well as light commercial vehicles, waste collectors, and cars (700 bar).
“Thanks to its strategic location on the Rhine-Danube transport corridor towards the Czech Republic, the station will play a central role in supplying commercial vehicles such as trucks and buses with green hydrogen. With several thousand trucks using this transport route daily, the location offers enormous potential. For the region as well, the station enables new options in the decarbonization of transport, e.g., for waste management companies or public transport,” emphasizes Dominik Herzog, Deputy Director of Sales & Business Development at H2 Mobility.
Autohaus Widmann as a central project partner
The local project partner is the dealership group Widmann, which actively supports securing the demand for hydrogen at this location with its network of business partners and customers in the commercial vehicle segment. Already today, the dealership in Ebermannsdorf is a point of contact for the integration and maintenance of Hyundai brand fuel cell trucks. Construction of the filling station on the premises of Autohaus Widmann is scheduled to begin in the first half of 2026.
Creating Synergies
With the Bavarian funding program for the development of a hydrogen refueling station infrastructure, the Bavarian State Government is setting investment incentives to quickly achieve the expansion of a basic hydrogen refueling station infrastructure. The location is intended not only to contribute to the decarbonization of transportation but also to create synergies with other hydrogen projects in the Nuremberg metropolitan region.
