The Swiss government has set a goal of having at least 100 hydrogen fueling stations in the country by 2025, as part of its efforts to reduce carbon emissions and promote clean transport.

Despite all the global efforts to curb climate change, the world of transportation is dominated by the number one fossil fuel: diesel. However, hydrogen electric technology has emerged as a viable alternative. One shortcoming is the lack of a national network of service stations. The H2 Mobility Switzerland association has set itself the goal of establishing such a network in Switzerland.

In hydrogen-electric technology, the vehicle's fuel cells convert hydrogen into electricity, which in turn drives an electric motor. The most important advantages: Refueling in a few minutes, only water vapor as emissions, a comparable range and identical performance to a diesel truck.

The price of hydrogen in Switzerland is still higher than that of traditional fuels but with the investments that are taking place it is likely that it will become more competitive as new technologies are implemented
