The Oslo hydrogen refueling stationAir Liquide Norway build, own and operate the hydrogen station at Rosenholm bus garage on a contract with Ruter. Hydrogenics Corporation (Belgium) have provided two HySTAT(TM)60 electrolyzers, in containers. The electrolyzers will support a complete electrolysis-based fueling station. The electrolyzers, capable of producing 250 kilograms per day, of pure hydrogen is based at the Rosenholm bus garage in Oppegård Municipality in the suburb of Oslo, Norway. The hydrogen refueling station commenced its service in May 2012 and provide hydrogen to operate fuel cell buses for a five year period. The project will reduce noise and improve the air quality in the Oslo area, in addition to reducing harmful emissions from public transport. The hydrogen will be produced at the station from electricity from renewable sources. The hydrogen fueling station will deliver sertified 100% green hydrogen. The consultancy company Sweco assist Ruter to build a wall around the station. Atle Stubberud, from Soon Design has made a futuristic design of the wall around the hydrogen station. This wall in steel and aluminium is going to have several functions. It will have some safety functions and it will have an information function. With a good design the station could become a beacon for the HyNor project and hydrogen in general. Main performances hydrogen production Application Refuelling [...]
