 note = {Since Yakushima Island is rich in rainfall, hydroelectric power produced on the island is sufficient to cover all the energy demands on 
this island. A hydrogen fueling station was constructed on this island and hydrogen was produced by water electrolysis. The hydrogen 
production rate is 1.25 Nm3/h. The produced hydrogen was used for the driving tests of fuel cell vehicles, while the public acceptance of 
hydrogen energy was studied. This station is comprised of several systems, including hydrogen generation, hydrogen purification, 
compression and storage. During the operation of the station, the electricity consumption by each component and the production rate of 
hydrogen were measured. Since the facility is small, the energy efficiency is low. The total energy efficiency, which was calculated by 
dividing the potential energy of the compressed hydrogen by the total electrical energy input to the station, was 25% (LHV) and 30% 
(HHV).},
