Abstract: A system for electric vehicle charging and hydrogen fueling leverages existing infrastructure of a localized renewable energy microgrid and utilizes excess generated energy to power an electrolyzer to produce hydrogen gas on site that is compressed and stored in a pressure vessel. A first portion of the stored hydrogen gas may be used for hydrogen fueling of a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) via a hydrogen fuel dispenser that is provided at a charging station. A second portion of the stored hydrogen gas may be converted into electricity through use of one or more fuel cells. The generated electricity may be used for charging a battery of a battery electric vehicle (BEV) via an electric vehicle charging dispenser that is also provided at the charging station.
