APT designs, supplies, and installs hydrogen filling stations for passenger cars, trucks, and industrial vehicles. Our solutions combine cutting-edge technology, maximum safety, and environmental friendliness. As part of the development of modern energy and mobility, we prepare technical and economic studies focused on the construction of hydrogen filling stations, including analysis of hydrogen sources – both green and blue.
Thanks to our many years of experience, we offer comprehensive services ranging from the preparation of studies and project documentation, through construction, to commissioning and subsequent servicing. Our goal is to provide reliable and sustainable solutions that support the development of hydrogen infrastructure and contribute to a cleaner future for transport.
Hydrogen filling stations
Modern hydrogen filling stations for sustainable mobility
Hydrogen filling stations are APT, spol. s r.o.’s contribution to efforts to reduce emissions in transport. The work and proprietary technological equipment are marked with a special company logo, which is a unique guarantee of compliance with environmental principles both in the manufacture of technological equipment and in its subsequent use in practice. Technologically, hydrogen filling stations build on APT’s many years of experience in the field of high-pressure hydrogen filling for transport purposes, both in trailers and in transportable pressure cylinders. The station in Neratovice has been in operation since 1999.
Safe and efficient technologies for refueling hydrogen vehicles
Although the development of hydrogen mobility in the Czech Republic is still in its infancy, APT has already designed and implemented three hydrogen filling stations. The experience gained has enabled the development of a certified Methodology for the Construction and Operation of Hydrogen Filling Stations, which subsequently became the basis for technical rule TPG 304 03. This has laid the foundation for standard procedures for design and subsequent approval processes in the Czech Republic. A filling station has been in operation in ÚJV Řež near Prague since 2020.
First 700 bar hydrogen filling station in the Czech Republic
On June 28, 2022, we also launched, together with VÍTKOVICE, a.s., the first public hydrogen filling station in the Czech Republic, located at the entrance to the Cylinders Holding production facility in Ostrava.
