Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc., today announced that it has been awarded a contract from Shell Hydrogen LLC for a modular hydrogen refueling station. The unit will be sited by Shell Hydrogen at a yet to be determined location within the United States.
Quantum will supply one of its modular, portable, and transportable hydrogen refueling stations together with a hydrogen storage cascade. The system incorporates an oil-free gas compression system to deliver hydrogen at high-pressure from the storage cascade. This refueling appliance will provide both 35 MPa (5,000 psi) and 70 MPa (10,000 psi) fill capabilities.
"Quantum's hydrogen refueling stations, integral elements of our alternative energy product portfolio, are cost-effective, just-in-time modular solutions to deliver hydrogen to hydrogen powered vehicles as their demand continues to grow around the world. We are pleased to support Shell Hydrogen in its efforts to establish the foundation of a hydrogen refueling network," said Alan P. Niedzwiecki, President and CEO. "Our modular hydrogen refueling stations are designed to support our customers as they advance their hydrogen and fuel cell vehicle initiatives."
