What is hydrogen mobility?

The hydrogen mobility refers to all means of transport using thehydrogen as an energy source, as a replacement for fossil fuels or lithium batteries. It is now establishing itself as a sustainable, efficient and clean alternative to meet environmental challenges.

How does a hydrogen vehicle work?

A hydrogen vehicle— whether it's a bicycle, a car, or a train — is powered by a fuel cell It converts the hydrogen stored in a tank into electricity, via a chemical reaction with the oxygen in the air. The only emission? Water vapor.

The result: zero polluting emissions, no combustion, and silent operation. It is a pillar of hydrogen transport.

What does hydrogen mobility consist of at Velhy?

Velhy offers a range of Hydrogen bikes (Sport, City, Cross)designed to make this clean technology accessible to the general publicEach bike is equipped with:

of a low pressure tank0.4L

of a hydrogen generator (hydrogen electrolyzer) water-powered

of a fuel cell long duration

This system allows for range of 40 to 60 km, for simple and fast recharging at home, without depending on heavy infrastructure.

What's the difference with a classic electric bike?

Unlike a electric city bike powered by a lithium battery, a Hydrogen bicycle:

does not require no direct mains connection

uses water and electricity to produce its fuel (hydrogen)

recharges via a hydrogen generator provided with the bicycle

contains little or no rare metals

The hydrogen bike refueling is more autonomous, more sustainable, and more environmentally friendly.

Why choose hydrogen mobility?

Because it addresses three key challenges:

Ecological: no emission of CO₂, fine particles or noise

Durable: no dependence on rare metals or disposable batteries

Economic: very low charging cost (~0.30 € for 60 km)

By choosing a Velhy City hydrogen bicycle Whether you choose Cross or Sport, you are actively participating in a more responsible energy transition, while enjoying a modern and uncompromising mode of transportation.
