Linde has opened a hydrogen fueling station in West Sacramento, California

Owners of hydrogen fueled cars can now pull up to the Linde hydrogen pump at the Ramos Oil Company station in West Sacramento and fill their tanks just like any other vehicle.

The station, equipped with state-of-the-art technology developed by Linde North America Inc, has been designated as officially open by all relevant stakeholders and authorities.

“This is truly a significant milestone in the advancement of hydrogen as an alternate fuel for cars,” said Mike Beckman, vice president of Hydrogen Fueling, Linde North America, Inc. “A hydrogen fueling station is very different from the usual gasoline and diesel fueling operations, requiring highly sophisticated equipment and special handing. Having been certified officially open, according to the new criteria, the station is the first in California and, in fact the US, to receive this designation. But it didn’t come easy.”

Beckman points out that the open designation comes only after a series of rigorous criteria have been met, including receipt of permits from all relevant authorities having jurisdiction, approval by the Department of Weights and Measures of the sale of hydrogen by the kilogram, and letters from at least two hydrogen fuel cell vehicle manufacturers confirming the station meets fueling protocols and can be used to fuel their line of cars.
