Title: CSULA Hydrogen Refueling Facility Performance Evaluation and Optimization

Abstract

Throughout its history, Cal State LA has been in the forefront of advanced energy and transportation technologies. The station is located at the intersection of two major highways in Los Angeles region and has a convenient access. It is capable of producing up to 60 kg/day and can fuel 15-20 vehicles per day. Cal State LA had partnered with DOE to establish a robust station operation and performance data collection program. This consisted of equipping the station with additional instrumentation and collecting fueling performance data for several years. The data was further furnished to NREL for processing and agglomeration with data from other stations. In addition to fueling, maintenance and failure events were shared as well as hydrogen purity reports. The station has also undergone several upgrades in fueling protocols and hardware for improved performance and code compliance.
