The problem of hydrogen station location is often studied through understanding refueling behavior or reviewing the experience of gasoline stations. Driven by the notion "where you drive more is where you more likely need refueling", this paper develops a new approach where station siting is...

The cost of hydrogen from biomass is not well understood due to the trade-offs between economies of scale at the production facility and diseconomies of scale in the feedstock collection and hydrogen delivery. The hydrogen delivery portion of the cost is particularly hard to understand because...

This paper focuses on evaluating the economic potential and infrastructure requirements of hydrogen production from agricultural residues, a representative green energy pathway. A mixed-integer nonlinear programming model is constructed for finding the most efficient and economical configuration...

Hydrogen offers potential advantages as a future energy carrier, with respect to reduced emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants, and enhanced energy supply security. However, the current lack of an extensive hydrogen (H2) infrastructure is often cited as a serious barrier to the...

Beijing could be an attractive region to initiate a hydrogen infrastructure for transportation. Air quality is poor, oil imports are soaring, and there is a desire to introduce innovative responses for the 2008 Olympics. If Beijing were to proceed to build hydrogen infrastructure before and...
