Only 18 refuelling stations for hydrogen vehicles in Switzerland

There are currently 18 refuelling stations for hydrogen vehicles in Switzerland. Another refuelling station is being planned, according to the Swiss H2 Mobility Association.
Most stations are located along the busy A1 motorway and extend from St. Gallen to Dietikon, Bern and Crissier. There are currently no hydrogen refuelling stations in Ticino or Valais. The next H2 refuelling station is to be built in Egerkingen.

Hydrogen-powered cars are currently an absolute rarity. Only two new hydrogen cars have been registered in Switzerland since the beginning of the year. The industry is therefore increasingly focussing on commercial vehicles such as hydrogen-powered lorries.

How we work
We select the most relevant news for an international audience and use automatic translation tools such as DeepL to translate them into English. An editor then briefly reviews the translation for clarity and accuracy before publication. Providing you with automatically translated news gives us the time to write more in-depth articles. The news stories we select have been written and carefully fact-checked by an external editorial team from news agencies such as Bloomberg or Keystone.
