Toyota and Italian oil and gas company Eni are collaborating to speed up the spread of hydrogen mobility in Italy.

The first phase of the project involves opening a hydrogen refuelling point at Eni’s new service station in San Donato Milanese. 

Eni said it is currently awaiting permissions to start work on the new station, which will be a multi-purpose facility selling petroleum products along with advanced fuels like biomethane, hydrogen and electricity.

The zero emission hydrogen available at the station will be produced with renewable energy by the station itself through electrolysis of water.
