In 2022, the company expects to increase capacity to up to 1,000 trucks per year through operational updates and the addition of a second shift.
Winschoten will be the European hub for vehicle assembly as well as the development of new vehicle technology, such as the company’s easy to assemble, lightweight hydrogen storage system.
The surrounding area in the northern Netherlands is the first region in Europe to receive a subsidy to develop a fully functioning green hydrogen chain.
Winschoten is also located near an international freight harbour, a major freight train station, and close to Germany, enabling easy export to EU countries.
