| ELKRIDGE,
Md.-- General Physics Corporation (GP), a subsidiary of GP Strategies Corporation,
recently completed the design and construction of a hydrogen energy station
for Chevron Hydrogen Company (CHC), a division of Chevron Corporation.
The station was constructed at the Alameda-Contra Costa (AC) Transit Bus
Fueling and Maintenance Facility in Oakland, California. The station provides
hydrogen for a small fleet of fuel cell demonstration buses and passenger
cars powered by UTC Power fuel cells and operated by AC Transit.
This station is part of AC Transit's
groundbreaking HyRoad hydrogen fuel cell demonstration program which is
considered the most comprehensive hydrogen fuel cell demonstration in North
America. The station features many technology achievements such as an integrated,
on-site system for producing hydrogen from natural gas, then purifying,
compressing and storing it for use as a vehicle fuel. Up to 150 KG of hydrogen
can be dispensed from this station daily, enough to fuel three fuel cell
buses and ten fuel cell vehicles.
GP was awarded the construction
contract through a competitive bid process. GP constructed all site improvements
including a hydrogen production and storage building, two fuel dispenser
islands with canopies, and an electrical/control room building. GP also
installed hydrogen generation, storage, and dispensing equipment provided
by CHC. The construction was completed in five months.
