Nikola, through its Hyla brand, has secured an extra US$16.3m in awards granted to bolster seven open network hydrogen refuelling stations. 

The additional awards are:

  • US$3.3m from Energiize West Sacramento California Energy Commission
  • US$1.6m from Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee
  • US$7m from Sacramento Metro AQMD
  • US$4.4m from South Coast AQMD. 

It followed a US$41.9 million grant from the California Transportation Commission (CTC) in July.

“The California grant awards and government funding demonstrate the strong support for Hyla’s mission of establishing zero emission transport to help fleets achieve climate goals and improve air quality,” said Carey Mendes, president of Nikola Energy.
