McPhy Energy has announced it will supply a hydrogen generator as part of the construction of a hydrogen refuelling station in Woolside, California.
McPhy Energy, which is a specialist in hydrogen production and storage equipment for industry and energy markets, is part of a consortium led by HTEC Hydrogen Technology & Energy Corporations, a leading developer of hydrogen fuelling infrastructure based in Vancouver, Canada, that received a Notice of Proposed Award (NOPA) from the California Energy Commission (CEC) for (US) $2,125,000 to supply a public hydrogen refuelling station in Woodside, California.
The NOPA from the CEC comes as part of PON 13-607, the second solicitation in a 10 year, (US) $200m programme to deploy refuelling stations across California to support the roll out of zero emission hydrogen vehicles.
McPhy Energy will collaborate in the development of the HTEC refuelling station by providing an electrolyser which will produce green hydrogen fuel using renewable electricity. The station, which will incorporate Powertech’s innovative station and dispenser design, is planned to be operational at the end of the summer next year. It will be capable of fuelling over 25 hydrogen vehicles per day and easily expand as demand grows. Fills will take 3-5 minutes to provide the cars enough fuel to travel over 300 miles (480kms).
