The supply system includes a supply module that assures the flow of dihydrogen between the tanks and an outlet pipe and two heaters mounted in series on a main pipe connected to the engine. The supply system also includes a network of pipes and solenoid valves that, in the event of a problem in one of the components of the supply system, enable dihydrogen to be redirected so as to reach the engine.
