Vontier’s ANGI Supplying First Hydrogen Refueling Station for Zero-Emission Buses to Trillium

The HRS will not only offer a complete, end-to-end solution for hydrogen refueling but also help fleet operators and transit companies transition to zero-emission vehicles

Vontier Corporation’s ANGI Energy Systems (ANGI) will supply its first full Hydrogen Refueling Station (HRS) to Trillium Energy Solutions, a Love’s Family company and provider of alternative fueling solutions, for installation at Santa Clarita Transit in California.

The HRS will not only offer a complete, end-to-end solution for hydrogen refueling but also help fleet operators and transit companies transition to zero-emission vehicles.

An ideal HRS includes a hydrogen dispenser, redundant compression capabilities, a site recirculation system, chillers, and a gas management panel that uses logic to control the flow and pressure of gas within the station.

ANGI’s HRS is based on a modular design, which offers configurable and flexible systems with high reliability from an extensive network of service and maintenance technicians.

Cloud connectivity helps deliver performance and uptime through remote monitoring, energy management, and preventative maintenance.

Santa Clarita Transit plans to transition its bus fleet from compressed natural gas to zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with the support of ANGI and Trillium.

The approach supports the City's fleet replacement plan to replace one-twelfth of the bus fleet with cleaner alternatives each year and also California’s Innovative Clean Transit (ICT) regulation, which requires all public transit agencies to gradually transition to a 100% zero‑emission bus fleet.

“ANGI is mission-critical to delivering our multi-energy portfolio of solutions across the mobility ecosystem, simultaneously supporting demand for traditional petroleum-based infrastructure, compressed and renewable natural gas, hydrogen, EV charging network software, and energy management,” said Mark Morelli, Vontier’s President and CEO. “Offering a turnkey Hydrogen Refueling Station demonstrates our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that produce tangible results for our customers, including sustainable energy options, enhanced asset productivity, and automation.”

The U.S. Department of Energy has announced ARCHES, California’s hydrogen hub, as one of seven hydrogen hubs and awarded up to $1.2 billion as a federal grant. California aims for 200 hydrogen stations by 2025.
