We picked our cities on the basis of economic strength and access to green energy

Our group decided to research deep geothermal energy, an emerging type of renewable energy

Deep Geothermal energy can power the U.S. for 2,000 while releasing no CO2

Superheated rock near San Diego is very close to earth’s surface, reducing costs of the project

Despite deep geothermal energy being very powerful and consistent, we deemed a second energy source necessary

Our research revealed a potent, renewable form of energy already on the market

Methane, produced naturally in landfills, is extracted above the enclosed landfill

The methane is then free to be reformed using steam reformation

While this process produces CO2, the net greenhouse effect is actually negative
CH4=72*CO2

Hours of research yielded several patents for our group to comply to

To analyze the technological aspects of the station, we benchmarked 3 active stations
![Page 18: Hydrogen Station](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56815c67550346895dca7597/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
After researching all the possibilities we could find, our group created concepts in several categories
![Page 19: Hydrogen Station](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56815c67550346895dca7597/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
These areas included production type, storage, tank location, and dispensing method among other things

With 3600 potential concept combinations, a severe screening was necessary
