Hydrogen infrastructure

Hydrogen infrastructure

A hydrogen infrastructure is composed of the structural elements that provide the framework supporting the hydrogen fueling infrastructure.

Hydrogen pipeline transport

Hydrogen pipeline transport is a transportation of hydrogen through a pipe as part of the hydrogen infrastructure. Hydrogen pipeline transport is used to connect the point of hydrogen production or delivery of hydrogen with the point of demand, pipeline transport costs are similar to CNG [ [http://www.leightyfoundation.org/files/WHEC16-Lyon/WHEC16-Ref022.pdf Compressorless Hydrogen Transmission Pipelines] ] , the technology is proven [ [http://www1.eere.energy.gov/hydrogenandfuelcells/pdfs/hpwgw_airprod_remp.pdf DOE Hydrogen Pipeline Working Group Workshop] ] , however most hydrogen is produced on the place of demand with every 50 to 100 miles an industrial production facility. [ [http://www.hydrogenforecast.com/ArticleDetails.php?articleID=250 Every 50 to 100 miles ] ] . As of 2004 there are 900 miles (1450 km) of low pressure hydrogen pipelines in the USA and 930 miles in europe.

Hydrogen highway

A hydrogen highway is a chain of hydrogen-equipped filling stations and other infrastructure along a road or highway which allow hydrogen vehicles to travel.

Hydrogen stations

Hydrogen stations which are not situated near a hydrogen pipeline get supply via hydrogen tanks, compressed hydrogen tube trailers, liquid hydrogen trailers, liquid hydrogen tank trucks or dedicated onsite production. Some firms as ITM Power are also providing solutions to make your own hydrogen (for use in the car) at home. [ [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7496644.stm Running on home-brewed hydrogen] ]
