COMBINED HYDROGEN FUEL CELL FOR VEHICLE FUELING, ELECTRIC VEHICLE FAST CHARGING AND FUEL CELL BACK-UP POWER FORECOURT
DRIVE
July 21, 2022
The system may comprise a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEM FC) stack that is connected to and provides energy to a microgrid for back-up applications, is connected to and provides energy to a fast-charge battery electric vehicle station (BEV) for fast charging of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and is connected to and provides hydrogen to a hydrogen dispenser for fueling Fuel Cell Vehicles (FCVs). Utilizing an integrated forecourt to support several different energy delivery applications and technologies may result in improved overall project economics and may accelerate the transition to a low/zero carbon economy for transportation and stationary back-up power.
