Missouri’s first hydrogen fueling station opened in Rolla today. The station is located at the Missouri University of Science and Technology’s E3 Commons Development.

Linde North America, part of The Linde Group, will be supplying the station with fuel cell-grade gaseous hydrogen on behalf of the Gas Technology Institute (GTI), which has partnered with the university to supply the station. Linde is one of the world’s largest hydrogen producers.

Linde’s role will also include storing and supplying fuel cell-grade gaseous hydrogen for the station, and providing technical support to GTI to ensure the safe and efficient performance of the refueling system.

Today’s opening of the hydrogen refueling station coincides a Hydrogen Road Tour sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transport, the Department of Energy, the California Fuel Cell Partnership and the National Hydrogen Association.
