WP09 Interoperable Hydrogen Refueling Station

Objective of WP9 is to improve hydrogen refuelling stations for railway sector by standardize its elements. First part of work is focusing on methodology of location and configuration of refuelling station that consider such factors us hydrogen demand, multimodality of station (use for road transport), possibility of hydrogen production on side (availability Renewal Energy Sources) and safety issues. The safety analysis will be developed for the general case and then applied to the specific case. Next part of work will Work on refuelling station will include fast refuelling process. The KPI’s of this work package are: Improve Life Cycle Costs of hydrogen refuelling station by decreasing its CAPEX. That will be reach by standardising elements of refuelling station. Addition LCA of refuelling station will decrease OPEX by increasing efficiency of refuelling process. Physical CO2 equivalent emissions by decreasing emission of kg CO2/km by improving hydrogen supply chain In this work package results from: PINTA3 project, Fuel Cell Hybrid Power Pack for Rail Applications (FCH2RAIL), Protocol for heavy duty hydrogen refuelling (PRHYDE) and Hydrogen Contaminant Risk Assessment (HyCoRA) project; will be used. This work package will correspond with the work packages for the hydrogen rolling stock work packages 7 and 8. The results containing standardization will be used for the results of work package 1.
