Description
Summary:One of the challenges associated with transitioning a transportation economy to any alternative fuel is bringing online fuel production, storage, transportation and end-customer delivery infrastructure at a pace and in the locations relevant to the parallel effort of bringing the related transportation vehicles into the market. In the case of hydrogen as a transportation fuel, the network of fueling stations may include a combination of centralized and de-centralized fuel production. The continuum of centralized to de-centralized production includes massive centralized hydrocarbon fuel processing plants that may number in the tens to hundreds, to neighborhood fueling stations that may number in the tens to hundreds of thousands, to the ultimate de-centralized solution of home fueling stations that may number in the millions. This talk will discuss recent advances in hydrogen fueling demonstrations and lessons learned for the next stage of implementation.
