BEHKO Construction built HTWO Energy Savannah in Pooler, Georgia, the first high-volume hydrogen production and refueling station designed for Class-8 trucks in the United States. Serving as general contractor and design-build partner, BEHKO delivered a facility producing up to 1,200 kg of hydrogen daily to fuel Hyundai’s XCIENT fuel-cell trucks operating between the Port of Savannah and Hyundai’s Metaplant America EV factory.

BEHKO’s scope encompassed sitework engineered for Class-8 truck circulation, structural steel and refueling canopies, safety envelopes meeting hydrogen operation requirements, and electrical infrastructure integrating production, storage, and dispensing systems. Each element demanded precision suited to the operational and safety standards of hydrogen fueling infrastructure, a discipline still new to most contractors in the Southeast.

BEHKO partnered with HydroFleet, Capital Development Partners, and Hyundai Motor Group to bring the project to completion. The firm’s 3D modeling capability coordinated equipment and safety systems across the site, while regional expertise enabled efficient permitting through a project type with few precedents in the region.

HTWO Energy Savannah positions Savannah as a national model for clean port logistics and establishes a replicable template for hydrogen stations across North America. We’re honored to have delivered infrastructure that supports the next generation of freight movement through one of the country’s busiest port markets.

The successful completion of HTWO Energy Savannah demonstrates our ability to execute technically demanding, first-of-their-kind projects that meet the evolving needs of clean energy and logistics infrastructure.
