Arctic Directory: Air Liquide finishes project for Shell Hydrogen

Air Liquide said Dec. 16 that it has completed the installation of a fueling system for Shell Hydrogen in Bronx, N.Y., in addition to the fueling equipment, Air Liquide is also supplying the hydrogen gas and liquid nitrogen required for operations. The station will provide fueling capability in support of General Motor’s Project Driveway vehicles and serve as another site in the network being developed in New York in anticipation of other auto manufacturers introducing fuel cell vehicles to the area. Air Liquide’s technology is also used at a station in Ardsley, N.Y. Using hydrogen as energy for transportation is a promising solution for sustainable mobility. Air Liquide has also provided fueling systems in California, Delaware and many countries around the world. The fueling systems are built in the U.S. with proprietary engineering designs from Air Liquide Advanced Technologies U.S. LLC, and are capable of filling a car at 700 bar pressure in less than five minutes. “Air Liquide’s innovative hydrogen technologies are powering vehicles and equipment while protecting the environment. With more than 40 years experience in hydrogen and numerous related patents, Air Liquide is helping to build the hydrogen energy infrastructure, to demonstrate its benefits to society and prepare for future markets,” said Michael J.
