Renewable Hydrogen Station at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam
HCATT manages the U.S.’s first renewable hydrogen station on a military base, located at the Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaiʻi. The station can store up to 380 kg of compressed hydrogen at pressures up to 10,000 psi. The hydrogen station can generate up to 12 kg of hydrogen a day when connected to the adjacent 146kW solar array and can produce up to 65kg of hydrogen a day when power is provided by the utility. The station provides fuel for the alternative fuel vehicle demonstrations program with the Hawaiʻi National Guard.
