Murcian freight forwarder dysfrimur aligns with Enagás subsidiary Lime Gas to launch a hydrogen-powered fleet
The Murcian logistics expert has announced a landmark agreement with Lime Gas, an Enagás subsidiary, to integrate new trucks powered by renewable hydrogen into its fleet. This initiative targets a decisive step toward decarbonizing day-to-day operations. Scale Gas will be part of the growing hydrogen network backing these vehicles. The plan envisions a national hydrogen network centered around operational bases owned by the logistics company across Spain.
The first refueling station as part of this collaboration is planned for the San Isidro area in Alicante, a site where Mercadona also maintains logistics facilities. The project, presented by dysfrimur, is expected to commence operations in 2024. The rollout will support hydrogen-powered logistics, with the fleet anticipated to reach the top tier of hydrogen-capable vehicles in the early phases. After the initial facility comes online, a total of 13 additional refueling points will be deployed to serve areas where dysfrimur maintains a presence.
In a formal statement, the two companies described the deal as a response to their shared commitment to decarbonize transportation and promote mobility that is sustainable, competitive, and high-quality. Dysfrimur will add hydrogen to its alternative-fuel portfolio, enabling the company to offer logistics services tailored to clients with a zero-carbon footprint in mind. Scale Gas will perform the necessary studies and build a national hydrogen generator network to meet the demand from dysfrimur and related third-party operators.
What is green hydrogen?
Scale Gas opened Spain’s first hydrogen refueling station in 2021 to support long-range fuel cell electric vehicles operating at 700 bar. The Enagás subsidiary concentrates on managing smaller and mid-sized infrastructures that supply alternative fuels to sectors where electrification is challenging, contributing to decarbonization efforts across the country.
Dysfrimur recently received the Lean&Green award from the Manufacturers and Distributors Association AECOC, recognizing its sustainable action plan aimed at reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The company has spent years implementing measures under an Invisible Transport strategy to decarbonize its operations. The fleet numbers more than 600 vehicles, with 16 percent already using alternative fuels such as natural gas and electricity, and now renewable hydrogen is entering the mix.
Alicante lights the way for Europe’s first major green hydrogen corridor
Last year, the Murcian company reported a turnover of 56.4 million euros, based on balances filed with the Trade Register, with a profit just over 476,000 euros. This milestone underscores the region’s growing role in Europe’s green hydrogen push and the broader shift toward cleaner logistics networks that support sustainable commerce across Spain.
