PHOENIX - Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) Corporation (NASDAQ:NKLA), known for its zero-emission transportation solutions, has opened its first HYLA high-pressure modular hydrogen refueling station in Southern California. The facility, which started operations last month, is designed to fuel up to 40 of Nikola's hydrogen fuel cell electric Class 8 trucks per day.

The grand opening event, held recently, gathered Nikola's fleet customers, dealers, government officials, and industry press, along with Nikola's leadership and engineering teams. Highlights included speeches from Nikola executives, a fleet director from Biagi Bros., and city representatives, alongside demonstrations of truck and hydrogen refueling, facility tours, and technology Q&A sessions.

Nikola's President of Energy Ole Hoefelmann expressed pride in the milestone, emphasizing the company's commitment to advancing zero-emission trucking solutions. The Ontario station is part of Nikola's strategic plan to establish up to nine refueling solutions by mid-2024 and 14 by year-end.

The HYLA network is expected to offer flexible refueling options for Nikola's hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles and other Class 8 customers. This includes modular and permanent stations, customer-owned facilities, and partnerships with public truck stops, such as the recent 10-year agreement with FirstElement Fuel for a station in Oakland, California.
