Approval to Release Request for Proposals for Interim Hydrogen Mobile Fueling Stations
overview
Overview
To comply with the California Air Resources Board’s Innovative Clean Transit Rule, the Orange County Transportation Authority is actively operating and expanding a mixed fleet that includes battery-electric buses and fuel-cell-electric buses, while continuing to build the operational experience necessary to transition to a fully zero-emission fleet by 2040. As part of this required transition, a critical infrastructure gap has emerged following the expiration of the long-term hydrogen fueling station contract. To maintain operations for existing and incoming fuel-cell-electric buses, staff has developed a request for proposals to procure two hydrogen mobile fueling stations as an interim solution.
