Nikola Corporation, a global leader in zero-emissions transportation and energy solutions, has been awarded a $41.9 million grant by the California Transportation Commission (CTC) to build six heavy-duty hydrogen refueling stations across Southern California.

This initiative, in partnership with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), aligns with the state’s zero-emission vehicle strategy and aims to support the development and adoption of zero-emission freight technology while providing essential truck parking facilities.

Caltrans, as the sponsor, will collaborate with Nikola Corporation to deploy these strategically located hydrogen refueling stations along major freight corridors. The project targets regions such as the South Coast Air Quality Management District, San Diego County Air Pollution Control District, and Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District. The stations’ establishment is expected to have a profound impact on the region, promoting community health improvements and reducing carbon emissions. Additionally, the project aims to address local noise pollution concerns.

The deployment of these hydrogen refueling stations is anticipated to enhance air quality, contributing to the overall well-being of communities. The project also aims to reduce local noise pollution. Each station will have the capacity to refuel approximately 80 to 100 heavy-duty trucks per day, supporting the growing demand for hydrogen fueling infrastructure. Nikola’s commitment to establishing zero-emissions infrastructure aligns with the expected surge in adoption of their hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks. This investment ensures the readiness of the necessary infrastructure to support sustainable transportation solutions.

The grant emphasizes the importance of open access hydrogen refueling stations. Nikola Corporation is committed to aligning their refueling stations with this approach, fostering the adoption of all hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles. This initiative reinforces California’s commitment to a more sustainable future, not only within the state but also across the United States.

Nikola Corporation’s collaboration with Caltrans and the support from the CTC through the grant demonstrates a shared commitment to advancing sustainable transportation solutions. The establishment of six heavy-duty hydrogen refueling stations will not only facilitate the adoption of zero-emission freight technology but also contribute to community health improvements and a reduction in carbon emissions. With a focus on future-ready infrastructure, Nikola Corporation is poised to play a crucial role in shaping the transition to a cleaner and more sustainable transportation industry.
