A method of refueling a vehicle tank with hydrogen, the refueling process is controlled by a hydrogen refueling station controller , the method comprising the steps of: - connecting the vehicle to the hydrogen refueling station by means of a hose , - initiating the refueling process by activating the controller , - during the refueling process monitoring the temperature of the gas (Tvehicle) inside the vehicle tank , - the controller establishing a pressure stop criterion (Pstop) for the refueling process, based on a pressure category of the vehicle tank and the monitored temperature of the gas (Tvehicle) inside the vehicle tank , - the establishing of the pressure stop criterion (Pstop) being based on a lookup in a predefined table of a plurality of pressure stop criteria (Pstop), - during the refueling process monitoring the pressure of the gas (Pvehicle) inside the vehicle tank , - by the controller comparing the monitored pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (P vehicle ) with the pressure stop criterion (P stop ) and terminating the refueling process when the monitored pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Pvehicle) has reached the pressure stop criterion (Pstop), and - disconnecting the hose between vehicle and the hydrogen refueling station characterized in that - during a first period of the refueling process, the controller establishing the pressures stop criterion (Pstop) from a lookup in the predefined table based on the measured temperature of gas in the vehicle tank (Tvehicle), - wherein during a remaining period of the refueling process, the controller is calculating the pressure stop criterion (Pstop) based on the measured pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Pvehicle), the measured temperature of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Tvehicle) and the pressure category of the vehicle tank , and - wherein the end of the first period is reached when the measured pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Pvehicle) is at least 50% of the pressure stop criterion (Pstop). - connecting the vehicle to the hydrogen refueling station by means of a hose , - initiating the refueling process by activating the controller , - during the refueling process monitoring the temperature of the gas (Tvehicle) inside the vehicle tank , - the controller establishing a pressure stop criterion (Pstop) for the refueling process, based on a pressure category of the vehicle tank and the monitored temperature of the gas (Tvehicle) inside the vehicle tank , - the establishing of the pressure stop criterion (Pstop) being based on a lookup in a predefined table of a plurality of pressure stop criteria (Pstop), - during the refueling process monitoring the pressure of the gas (Pvehicle) inside the vehicle tank , - by the controller comparing the monitored pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (P vehicle ) with the pressure stop criterion (P stop ) and terminating the refueling process when the monitored pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Pvehicle) has reached the pressure stop criterion (Pstop), and - disconnecting the hose between vehicle and the hydrogen refueling station - during a first period of the refueling process, the controller establishing the pressures stop criterion (Pstop) from a lookup in the predefined table based on the measured temperature of gas in the vehicle tank (Tvehicle), - wherein during a remaining period of the refueling process, the controller is calculating the pressure stop criterion (Pstop) based on the measured pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Pvehicle), the measured temperature of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Tvehicle) and the pressure category of the vehicle tank , and - wherein the end of the first period is reached when the measured pressure of the gas inside the vehicle tank (Pvehicle) is at least 50% of the pressure stop criterion (Pstop). <EOS>
