Gaseous fuel storage system

A gaseous fuel storage system, comprising:

• one or more storage tanks, each of the one or more storage tanks having a first end and a second end, the first end of each of the one or more storage tanks having a connection fitting, wherein each storage tank is oriented horizontally;
• wherein the first end of the one or more storage tanks is mounted to a first support bracket which is in turn mounted to a slab positioned on a ground level;
• wherein the second end of each of the one or more storage tanks is mounted to a second support bracket which is in turn mounted to the slab;
• a piping and valving assembly coupled to the connection fitting, including one or more remote shut off valves, wherein each of the one or more tanks is coupled to an outlet line through one of the one or more remote shut off valves;
• a first cabinet surrounding the piping and valving assembly and a portion of the first end of each of the one or more storage tanks, wherein collectively, the first support bracket and the first cabinet define an enclosed space;
• a second cabinet surrounding a portion of the second end of each of the one or more storage tanks, wherein collectively, the second support bracket and the second cabinet define an enclosed space;
• a sensor apparatus including a detector disposed in the first cabinet which is operable to detect presence of hydrogen gas and generate a signal representative of a concentration of the hydrogen gas;
• and
• an electronic controller operably connected to the sensor apparatus and to the one or more remote shut off valves, wherein the electronic controller is programmed to close the one or more remote shut off valves in response to detection of a first predetermined concentration of the hydrogen gas.
