The California Energy Commission has awarded $33 million to Shell, FirstElement Fuel, and Air Liquide to construct 16 hydrogen fueling stations in California.
Hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles have logged 1 million miles through FirstElement's True Zero fueling network in California, the fuel vendor reported.
Irvine, Calif.-based True Zero is on track to build 19 hydrogen stations in California by early 2017 to support fuel-cell vehicles such as the Toyota Mirai and Honda Clarity Fuel Cell.
Honda's $13.8 million in financial assistance, combined with anticipated future grants from the State of California, could allow FirstElement Fuel to add at least 12 stations to California’s hydrogen fuel network.
Toyota has revealed the name of its fuel cell sedan. The Mirai means future in Japanese. Also in Toyota's future are plans to build more hydrogen fueling stations in several Northeastern states.
Toyota Motor Sales supports California's hydrogen fueling initiative by dedicating funds to FirstElement Fuel, which will build 19 public stations.
