One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for automatically refueling a vehicle using fuel storage modules. The vehicle can comprise a vehicle-side fuel module storage that is coupled with a fuel manifold to provide fuel to the vehicle. A remote fuel storage can be located proximate the target operation for the vehicle. When a fuel loading event is identified, such as low fuel, the vehicle can transit to the remote fuel module storage. Once appropriately aligned, actuators can be used to automatically exchange fuel modules between the vehicle-side fuel module storage and the remote fuel module storage.
