This paper falls within the field of applied research and focuses on emerging hydrogen technologies, particularly the use of hydrogen as a vehicle fuel in the transportation sector. The deployment of hydrogen-powered vehicles requires a network of refueling infrastructure; however, stationary hydrogen refueling stations are currently economically feasible only at selected locations. To complement this limitation, a mobile hydrogen refueling station was developed, offering relatively low initial investment costs together with flexible hydrogen delivery and dispensing capabilities. The paper outlines the main parameters of the mobile station prototype and presents the computational tools developed to determine optimal filling parameters. The final part of the paper deals with the experimental verification of the structural loading of the trailer carrying the station and with the evaluation of the driving performance of the complete vehicle–trailer combination.
