About
Hydrogen mobility has a station problem, not a vehicle problem. H2-DIRECT is a holistic digital coordination platform that turns hydrogen refuelling stations — especially those producing their own hydrogen on site — into investment-ready, energy-efficient, and highly reliable assets. Instead of treating planning, production, safety, and the driver experience as separate problems, H2-DIRECT unifies them into a single intelligent system: it helps investors prove a station's return before a shovel hits the ground, keeps production and refuelling in step with renewable energy so no clean hydrogen goes to waste, and gives operators and drivers real-time visibility into station status — all while continuously monitoring safety and compliance in the background, even if the network goes down.
Built by three complementary innovators — hydrogen infrastructure specialists, an edge-AI team with a track record in autonomous marine technology, and a platform company with 25 years of commercial deployment experience — H2-DIRECT is being developed and proven on a real, operating hydrogen station already fuelling everything from cars to golf carts. Over the next year, the project will take this technology from a validated concept to a fully integrated, field-tested platform ready to scale across Europe's growing hydrogen network. The result is a smarter, more transparent refuelling experience that gives drivers confidence, gives operators control, and gives investors the evidence they need to build the infrastructure hydrogen mobility depends on.
