Hydri has chosen cross-laminated timber (CLT) from Södra for the construction of several new hydrogen stations, including in Värnamo, Hallandsasen, and Odeshog. Today, the station in Haby is being inaugurated. The hydrogen stations are part of a nationwide initiative that will make it possible to refuel trucks, buses, and cars with fossil-free fuel at around 30 locations across the country. This creates a joint business that drives the transition to renewable solutions on commercial grounds.

“At Hydri, we are very optimistic about the development of infrastructure for renewable fuels, where hydrogen plays a key role. By building stations with sustainable materials like CLT, we strengthen our ambition to contribute to the green transition and create long-term climate solutions for both national and international traffic”, says Peter Enå, Chief Executive Officer at Hydri.

“We have a very exciting partnership with Hydri, whose values align in many ways with Södra's. We are creating a joint business that drives the transition to renewable solutions on commercial grounds. We also show that standardization with a focus on optimized material utilization creates competitive solutions from an economic perspective”, says Andreas Berge, Business Area Manager at Södra Building Systems.

CLT from Södra is a locally produced building material that offers several advantages. Thanks to its low weight, fewer transports are required, allowing more panels to be loaded per transport. The assembly is quick and easy, providing a safe working environment while being cost-effective. Additionally, the total carbon dioxide emissions associated with the building are reduced, as the wood continues to store carbon dioxide throughout its lifespan.

“It feels important to collaborate with actors who contribute to the green transition in society. In our own operations as a producer and supplier of CLT, it is the transports that account for the largest amount of fossil emissions. Hydri's expansion of infrastructure for green hydrogen aligns with our own climate goals of halving our fossil emissions by 2030”, says Ola Landqvist, Business Developer at Södra Building Systems.
