Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps his Department is taking to ensure a sufficient level of infrastructure across the UK to support the demand for hydrogen vehicles in road transport.

There are seven publicly accessible hydrogen refuelling stations in the UK, with five more planned, serving a fleet of approximately 230 vehicles including buses, HGVs and light duty cars and vans. Government support for additional hydrogen refuelling infrastructure will be linked to specific R&D programmes that will provide a base level of demand.
