An analysis is presented of service rates at nineteen retail hydrogen stations in a heavilyused California network to gain insight into station capacity impacts on customer wait times. Each station has only one fueling position resulting from just one, one-sided dispenser. Collected data of each refueling step for 1000's of hydrogen refuelings in California provides insight into station and network capacity for both California and emerging infrastructure elsewhere. The analysis herein concludes that customers would be exponentially better served with a network of larger, multi-position stations instead of smaller, one position stations.
