This project, in collaboration with GZOG Energy and Maximator Hydrogen GmbH, showcases Rockfin's commitment to advancing hydrogen technology and supporting sustainable transportation solutions.
Rockfin, in collaboration with Maximator Hydrogen GmbH from Germany and GZOG Energy, has reached a pivotal milestone in the establishment of a new hydrogen refueling station for ORLEN S.A. at Wielkopolska 239, Gdynia (station no. 650). The Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) was conducted at Maximator's manufacturing facility in Nordhausen, affirming the station's readiness for implementation.
Key Aspects of Rockfin's Contribution:
Procurement and Delivery: Rockfin was responsible for acquiring advanced hydrogen refueling technology essential for the project.
Design and Documentation Approval: Rockfin reviewed and approved Maximator’s design documentation to ensure all specifications met the project's high standards.
Testing and Verification: The testing procedures for the station were meticulously verified, including technical inspections of components and compliance with technical specifications.
Safety Protocols: One of the critical evaluations involved testing key safety features, such as the emergency shutdown system, which activates upon hydrogen detection to ensure operational safety.
Efficiency Demonstration: A trial refueling of a Hyundai Nexo was performed, successfully charging 5.4 kg of hydrogen at 700 bar in just 190 seconds, demonstrating the station's efficiency and advanced capabilities.
Unique Features of the Station: This station will be the first Maximator facility in Poland capable of simultaneously refueling passenger vehicles and heavy-duty trucks. This dual-functionality is integral to supporting the comprehensive development of the country's hydrogen infrastructure.
Next Steps: Following the successful FAT and documentation finalization, the refueling station has been cleared for transport to Poland. Installation at the Gdynia site is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2025.
Rockfin is excited to lead the way in Poland's energy transition by implementing this state-of-the-art hydrogen refueling station. This project not only supports the development of zero-emission transportation options but also aligns with global efforts to promote clean energy solutions. Rockfin's expertise and dedication to innovative technologies are pivotal in establishing modern and sustainable infrastructure in Poland and beyond.
