Honda Begins Operation of New Solar Hydrogen Station

January 28, 2010 – 10:09 pm | USA, Torrance CA

Honda's Next Generation Solar Hydrogen Station Prototype

Los Angeles-based Station to Re-fuel Honda Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle

Honda began operation of a next generation Solar Hydrogen Station prototype at the Los Angeles Center of Honda R&D Americas, Inc., intended for ultimate use as a home refueling appliance capable of an overnight refill of fuel cell electric vehicles. Designed as a single, integrated unit to fit in the user’s garage, the station reduces the size of the system, while producing enough hydrogen (0.5kg) via an 8-hour overnight fill for daily commuting (10,000 miles per year) for a fuel cell electric vehicle.

Emerson’s Micro Motion Coriolis Meters MID-Certified – Suited for LNG

November 17, 2009 – 11:23 am

Emerson Micro Motion ELITE Coriolis Meter

Emerson Process Management has obtained an extension to its MID (Measurement Instrument Directive) certificate to include Micro Motion ELITE Coriolis meters for low flow applications. The Micro Motion meters are ideally suited to cryogenic applications for dispensing liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel to motor vehicles, including public transport and trucks. MID certification means that when these new, compact flowmeters are used as a component of a complete measuring system, such as a fuel dispenser, it is not necessary for the dispenser manufacturer to type test and certify the devices – saving both time and money for the dispenser manufacturer.

A Fordongas refuelling station in Sweden

A first demonstration report entitled “Draft Demonstration Report on Fuel Stations Including Deployment Strategies and Regulatory Requirements“, carried out by GDF-SUEZ partner of the Biogasmax project, on fuel stations including deployment strategies and regulatory requirements has been released by Biogasmax. Demonstration sites such as Lille (France), Bern (Switzerland), Göteborg and Stockholm (Sweden) are described, regarding gas supply, compression and storage facilities and distribution modes. Technical, environmental and economic factors for biomethane fuelling stations have been assessed. A final report is expected in September 2010.
