Our City

Middletown, OH (pop. 48,694)

Means of Acquiring H2

Landfill Gas Biomethane

Hydrogen via Steam

Methane Reforming

Delivered via pipeline from central processing plant

We will be using landfill gas to extract the hydrogen

Landfill gas is very sustainable

Our plan is to begin by building 3 fueling stations with the intent of creating a large scale industry

Cost Estimate

Per Station cost = $33,159,686

Total cost (3 stations) = $99 million

Environmental Considerations

Energy Consumption Each station needs ~320,000 kwh/day 1,529,109 kwh available via biogas from landfill 4.78 stations/day MAX 3 stations by taking into account degree of safety

Solar panels installed at station 316.8 kwh/day Enough to power the convenience store and possibly

even the whole station

By using “green” energy sources such as this, we will significantly decrease the carbon footprint on the earth

Conclusion

Cost efficient

Renewable source of H2

Station easily replicated

Meets city-wide demand

Self-sustaining

Environmentally Friendly

Thank you for your time and attention!
