Hyfluence to supply hydrogen infrastructure to Lewis County Transit

The company will provide a self-contained hydrogen fueling station for the supply of fuel to commercial vehicles.

Hyfluence Systems has been awarded the supply of hydrogen refueling infrastructure to Lewis County Transit, in support of their initial deployment of hydrogen buses in Lewis County, Washington, USA.

Hyfluence will deliver a FleetPilot self-contained hydrogen fueling station for the filling of hydrogen commercial vehicles. The equipment will encompass compression, storage and dispensing based on the company’s new system architecture while also meeting the newly released SAE J2601-5 TIR fueling protocol.

“Our FleetPilot line is specifically designed for growing fleet deployments where mobile refuelers are unable to comply with the new SAE J2601-5 standard for safe high-speed fueling,” stated Angela Das, CTO of Hyfluence.

These hydrogen infrastructure solutions will be deployed in partnership with Chart Industries and their subsidiary Howden, who will supply key compression components alongside the Hyfluence systems.

The SAE Fuel Cell Standards Committee Interface Task Force (ITF) has spent the last two years developing hydrogen fueling protocols to prepare for the alternative fuel’s growth, thus ensuring hydrogen stations can fuel vehicles safely and as quickly as possible. 

The Hyfluence equipment will be produced at the company’s Vancouver, Canada manufacturing facility and deployed to Lewis County Transit in early 2025.
