Reynolds Logistics and NanoSUN announce partnership to deliver hydrogen fuel

NanoSUN and Reynolds Logistics have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on providing end-users with hydrogen car refueling options.

Reynolds Logistics will assist NanoSUN in providing its customers with the Pioneer Mobile Hydrogen Refueling Station under the terms of the new agreement (HRS).

Currently, there are a limited number of fixed hydrogen refueling stations, meaning that fleets of cars may have to travel considerable distances to recharge. Under the terms of the new agreement, NanoSUN will collaborate with Reynolds Logistics to transport hydrogen fuel from the hydrogen source to their customers’ hydrogen vehicles in a single logistics operation, thereby eliminating the need for end users to move their vehicle fleet to a hydrogen source on a daily basis.

The Pioneer HRS from NanoSUN uniquely combines volume gas storage, gas transportation, and end-use vehicle dispensing into a single ISO container. Providing local delivery of hydrogen-grade fuel directly to hydrogen car fleets in any area and meeting a fundamental necessity for accelerating the adoption of hydrogen vehicles.

Incorporating NanoSUN’s proprietary multi-stage cascade refueling technology, which requires no fixed utilities (electricity, water, etc.), the Pioneer system is the ideal answer for in-field and mobile refueling, with a simple and intuitive design that enables rapid deployment.

Reynolds Logistics will provide the logistics service to all NanoSUN Pioneer HRS customers, who will be able to take advantage of a fast and efficient delivery service with real-time ePOD confirmation, using industry-leading back office and in-cab technology, and access to up-to-date information via a web portal.

Reynolds Logistics is one of the top logistics businesses in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Europe for the distribution of bulk fuels, lubricants, bitumen, specialty gases, and dangerous commodities. The transportation corporation has a large presence and experience in the distribution of aviation and ground fuels, including low-carbon fuels such as LNG and, more recently, potential for the energy transition to green hydrogen.

NanoSUN’s CEO, Dean O’Connor, commented: “The Pioneer’s capacity to deliver multiple rapid full fills to hydrogen vehicle fleets offers the vital element needed if we’re to get the transport industry to a clean, green future fast! Reynolds Logistics are an excellent partner for the safe and efficient transport of our Pioneer system from hydrogen source to vehicle deployment, where vehicles are refueled for commercial operations.”

Andrew Reynolds, CEO of Reynolds Logistics, commented: “Reynolds Logistics have a proven history in the logistics of fuels. The company is continuing growth into new markets including low and zero carbon fuels like hydrogen. Our key drivers of safety, innovation and customer satisfaction will support NanoSUN’s customers in the rapid deployment and operation of Pioneer, enabling rapid deployment of hydrogen vehicle fleets.”
