The University of Victoria from British Columbia, Canada, was selected as the grand prize winner of the first Hydrogen Fueling Station Design Contest,

sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, the National Hydrogen Association, ChevronTexaco, Natural Resources Canada, and Swagelok Company

Seventeen teams from universities in the U.S. and Canada participated in the competition to design a hydrogen fueling station that considers technical specifications for hydrogen production, delivery and storage, environmental impact, safety issues, and profitability, as well as education and marketing to build community awareness. The teams were also required to build a digital 3D rendering of the proposed station. Station designs included renewable and non-renewable hydrogen production technologies suitable for constructing a hydrogen fueling station by the year 2006.
