The system will include the necessary hydrogen fueling infrastructure, mobile or semi-permanent onsite hydrogen storage and the required safety improvements to the site to meet all applicable codes and standards. An award is anticipated to be made for the HFS based on the evaluation of proposals submitted for this RFP. This RFP Scope of Services covers the hydrogen storage and transfer system to be used for the fueling of a single ZEMU rail vehicle operated for the purposes of both testing & commissioning, and revenue transit service. This RFP requests a proposal, commercial terms, and technical data for the HFS to be located on the AMF site. The HFS will be located on site in an outdoor location and will be required to meet the technical requirements as defined in this RFP document.
