Cover Story: Biogas and hydrogen (H2) are breaking through as alternative energy sources in road transport, specifically for heavy-duty vehicles. Until a public network of service stations is deployed for such vehicles, the owners of large fleets will need to build and manage their own refueling facilities. This article describes the construction of a prototype system capable of solving those needs. During the design and development process of the prototype, the standard industry protocols involved in these installations were considered, and the latest expertise in information technology systems was applied. This prototype has been essential to determine the Strengths, Challenges, Opportunities and Risks (SCOR) of such a system. The next stage will involve setting up a pilot study and developing a commercial system that can be widely installed to provide a real solution for the industry. View this paper
