Where can I find hydrogen resource data?
Explore hydrogen resource data via our online geospatial tools and downloadable U.S. maps and data sets. View, download, and analyze hydrogen data spatially and dynamically. HyDRA contains hydrogen demand, resource, infrastructure, cost, production, and distribution data. View and explore renewable energy resource data.
Where can I find hydrogen fueling station locations?
Visit the Alternative Fuels Data Center to find hydrogen fueling station locations in the United States. The following publications provide more information about NREL's hydrogen fueling infrastructure analysis activities and capabilities.
What is a hydrogen refueling station?
Hydrogen refueling stations (HRSs) are key infrastructures rapidly spreading out to support the deployment of fuel cell electric vehicles for several mobility purposes.
Why is hydrogen refueling station technology development important?
These insights provide valuable guidance for stakeholders to enhance hydrogen infrastructure development and accelerate sustainable energy transformation. The global transition toward sustainable energy systems necessitates a comprehensive understanding of hydrogen refueling station (HRS) technology development.
How many hydrogen refueling stations are there in 2021?
Hydrogen refueling stations in 2021 by region [ 52 ]. In 2021, 538 hydrogen refueling stations were in operation around the world. Japan installed the largest number of hydrogen refueling stations, followed by Germany and Korea. However, more stations are needed to support the hydrogen society.
What are the characteristics of a gaseous hydrogen refueling station?
Therefore gaseous hydrogen refueling stations (whether produced on-site or transported) have the following primary characteristics: initial GH 2 storage, compression, high-pressure storage (if applicable), and thermal management (therefore a pre-cooling phase) prior to the hydrogen flowing into the vehicle's tank.
