We currently operate two hydrogen fueling stations in Southern California, with seven more planned throughout the state to help push California closer to its goal of 200 hydrogen stations by 2025.

In Germany, Shell is working with the government and industry partners in a cross-sector joint venture, H2 Mobility Germany, to support the development of a nationwide expansion of hydrogen refueling stations.
