  • 7 eM2 class 6 trucks battery packs and EV drivetrain

Development program underway with Hino and another OEM

In discussions with other OEMs, fleet customers and tier 1 partners to develop customized solutions

EU aims to be the world's leading region for hydrogen

6GW of renewable hydrogen electrolysers

1 million tons of renewable H2

Today-2024

40GW of renewable H2

10 million tons renewable H2

2025-2030

Hydrogen deployed at a large scale across all hard-to-decarbonize sectors

$\geq 2030$

Hydrogen infrastructure to grow manyfold during the decade

Number of hydrogen refueling stations is expected to grow by more than 35% per year this decade

Average HRS capacity/day is expected to increase from <200 kg of hydrogen in 2020 to >1,000 kg of hydrogen in 2030

Growth is mainly driven by roll-out of large truck fleets and related infrastructure and a general increase in FCEVs on the road

Solid hydrogen distribution momentum in 2021

Hydrogen distribution will be a key revenue driver for Hexagon Purus in 2021, with delivery of hydrogen distribution cylinders and systems to several European and North American customers

China is the world's largest hydrogen market - Hexagon Purus is in the final stages of JV negotiations

Discussions with partner CIMC ENRIC are progressing well, albeit somewhat delayed mainly due to COVID-19 related travel restrictions

Expect to finalize and sign the joint venture agreement in the next few months

China is expected to be the world's largest market for FCEVs and the partnership with CIMC ENRIC will give the company access to this exciting opportunity

Financial targets

2021 REVENUE TARGET

2025 REVENUE TARGET

LONG-TERM PROFITABILITY TARGET

Revenue to grow by at least 50%
