Planned to be situated at HMCA’s offices in New South Wales, the station will initially be used to fuel a Hyundai ix35 hydrogen-powered zero-emission fuel cell electric vehicle.
The vehicle is the first hydrogen-powered car to be imported into Australia.
The hydrogen fueling station is currently undergoing commissioning with vehicle fueling due to start this week.
Air Products said it will demonstrate the benefits of hydrogen-based, zero-emission fuel cell electric vehicle technology in Australia.
Air Products business development manager for hydrogen energy systems Chris Kretz said: "Since we work with Hyundai at other locations around the world by providing hydrogen mobile fuelers in the U.S. and are leasing a Hyundai FCEV Tucson in Europe, we are thrilled to be working with Hyundai in Australia so they can fuel and showcase their vehicle and its benefits first-hand.
"We continue to develop our relationships with Hyundai and other vehicle manufacturers to highlight the benefits of hydrogen as a clean fuel, and the benefits of fuel cell electric drive trains as a zero emission automotive propulsion system at locations around the world."
The SmartFuel hydrogen fueling stations of Air Products have been placed into operation in more than 21 countries as a standard product offering.
The company is working with Australia-based Coregas as the local supplier of hydrogen to provide a complete fueling solution.
