Gaussin, Lhyfe to partner on hydrogen mobility for logistics sector

A strategic partnership for GAUSSIN and Lhyfe

According to the terms of the MoU signed by GAUSSIN and Lhyfe, the two operators will study the possibility of developing a comprehensive renewable mobility solution combining the hydrogen vehicles of GAUSSIN and the green and renewable hydrogen produced by Lhyfe.

The partnership also includes a commercial component aimed at identifying potential customers, in France and abroad, likely to be interested in such an all-round renewable mobility solution for logistics, port and airport sites.

Promising synergies

Lhyfe produces green and renewable hydrogen from water and renewable energy (by electrolysis of water). The company, which inaugurated its first production site in 2021, already has a sales pipeline representing a total installed production capacity of 9.8 GW by 2030 (figure as of mid-September 2022). It seeks to develop and operate green and renewable hydrogen production sites across Europe to decarbonise transport and industry.

Lhyfe's business is thus complementary to that of GAUSSIN, which designs heavy handling vehicles running on hydrogen. Aware of the possible synergies between their areas of business, Lhyfe and GAUSSIN wish to offer a global green hydrogen mobility solution for the transport and logistics ecosystem.

“Renewable green hydrogen is now an extremely relevant solution for the logistics sector, from all points of view – ecologically, practically and economically”, declares Christophe Dubruque, Mobility Development Director at Lhyfe. “This memorandum of understanding with GAUSSIN will allow us to approach the very specific sector of logistics, port and airport sites with a perfectly adapted turnkey solution.”
