    Linde opens its own hydrogen fuelling station near Munich

    - As of today, fuel-cell cars can fill up on hydrogen in the town of
    Unterschleissheim.

    - Markus Bachmeier, Head of Hydrogen Applications: "Linde is leading the
    way in the field of hydrogen fuelling and is committed to the
    widespread commercialisation of this technology."

    - Environmentally friendly car sharing initiative BeeZero benefits from
    improved infrastructure.


    Munich, 12 January 2017 - The technology company The Linde Group continues
    to invest in building out Germany's hydrogen refuelling network. The
    company has converted its test and development centre at its production
    site in Unterschleissheim (17 kilometres north of Munich) to a public
    fuelling station. Drivers of fuel-cell cars can now refuel with
    environmentally friendly hydrogen at the site (Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to
    10 p.m.).

    For more than ten years the "Linde Hydrogen Centre" has been serving as a
    hydrogen supply point, technology test centre and presentation platform.
    The centre's impressive architecture with three transparent, circular roof
    segments makes it a striking backdrop to showcase the benefits of hydrogen.

    The centre initially served as a fuelling station for a test fleet of
    hydrogen-fuelled cars and buses, including a shuttle bus used during the
    2006 football World Cup. In 2007, the site was designated one of the "365
    Landmarks in the Land of Ideas" by the initiative "Germany - Land of
    Ideas". Today, the fuelling station is primarily used by test vehicles from
    BMW and the car sharing fleet run by BeeZero. In summer 2016, the new
    affiliate Linde Hydrogen Concepts started operating the world's first car
    sharing scheme to exclusively offer hydrogen-fuelled vehicles under the
    name of BeeZero. The new station near Munich provides owners of fuel-cell
    cars with a second refuelling option in addition to the TOTAL station in
    the city's Detmoldstrasse. Further stations will be added over the coming
    months.

    Linde has gained many years of expertise along the entire hydrogen value
    chain and has equipped over 100 hydrogen fuelling stations around the
    world. In addition, Linde collaborates with partner companies to explore
    new pathways in the sustainable production of hydrogen using renewable
    energy sources.

    The revamp activities have received funding from the Federal Ministry of
    Transport and Digital Infrastructure.

    In the 2015 financial year, The Linde Group generated revenue of EUR 17.944
    bn, making it one of the leading gases and engineering companies in the
    world, with approximately 65,000 employees working in more than 100
    countries worldwide. The strategy of The Linde Group is geared towards
    long-term profitable growth and focuses on the expansion of its
    international business with forward-looking products and services. Linde
    acts responsibly towards its shareholders, business partners, employees,
    society and the environment in every one of its business areas, regions and
    locations across the globe. The company is committed to technologies and
    products that unite the goals of customer value and sustainable
    development.
