Designing a Drop-in Hydrogen Fueling Station 2014 Hydrogen Student Design Contest
Long Beach, CA May 8, 2014
In this presentation… 1. Project Scope 2. Customer Attributes 3. Liquid H2 Delivery 4. Station Design 5. User Interface 6. Safety Features 7. Site Logistics 8. Economic Analysis
• Low cost – current H2 stations are $2- 4 million each • Hydrogen delivered for $7/kg • Fuel 2 vehicles simultaneously, 25 vehicles per day • 5 minute fill time for 700 bar, 5 kg fuel tank • Transportable • Low maintenance • Operated and monitored remotely • Hydrogen storage should withstand 48 hr shutdown
2014 HYDROGEN STUDENT DESIGN CONTEST
DEVELOPMENT OF DESIGN FOR A DROP-IN HYDROGEN FUELING STATION TO SUPPORT THE EARLY MARKET BUILD-OUT OF HYDROGEN INFRASTRUCTURE
Key Rules and Guidelines:
Design with the Customer in Mind
Low Cost No Maintenance
=
Compact
Bring in Customers Profit
Why Liquid Hydrogen Delivery?
• Lowest cost
• Low energy demand
• Minimizes equipment
• Utilizes thermal properties
4 times the density of delivered gas
• Existing infrastructure
80-90% of all non-pipeline H2 delivered by cryogenic liquid tankers.1
