Hydrogen Storage Trailer
A cost-effective solution for collecting and transporting hydrogen gas, giving you control, flexibility and efficient storage for many hydrogen applications.
1 All prices are subject to GST at the prevailing rate and do not include delivery, shipping, import/export taxes, or costs associated with site preparation and installation.
Overview
Collect, transport and deploy hydrogen with your own vehicle while reducing third-party delivery and storage costs.
As hydrogen technology and applications become more widespread, the running costs of hydrogen devices are heavily influenced by the final cost of the fuel.
Buying hydrogen can become significantly more expensive once transport and storage hire are added. The HST-24-200 lets you collect hydrogen and return it to your site without these additional per-kilogram costs, which can add up to 50%.
Use a typical ute and your own driver.2
This hydrogen trailer is made in Aotearoa New Zealand, bringing the benefits of local expertise and access to technology and service staff in the same time zone, language and industry environment.
The HST-24-200 incorporates mechanical safety features including:
The product warranty covers:
Warranty remains subject to routine wear and tear and the customer’s use of the product.
New Zealand Hydrogen recommends annual service checks covering leakage and damage, the pressure gauge, cylinder fitting security, and weather and environmental protection.
For a hydrogen storage trailer of this size and capacity, the safe working distance for protection against potential hazards is 5 metres.
When the trailer is installed on its own or with other equipment, a secure boundary such as a fence is required to prevent unauthorised access to the controls and fittings.

What You Can Do With This Product
One full trailer of hydrogen can provide electrical power in a fuel cell power system or refuel FCEV vehicles.

| This is enough energy to power a typical home for about 15 days. |
| Fully charge a Tesla Model Y six times and travel for 2,760 km. |
| The trailer can be connected to the refuelling modules and the hydrogen boosted up to 700 bar for delivery to FCEV vehicles. |
| Fully refuel a Toyota Mirai FCEV four times and travel for 2,400 km. |
| Fully refuel a Toyota Hilux FCEV three times and travel for 1,800 km. |
