California funds construction of 15 new hydrogen stations

California to have 15 new hydrogen fuelling stations after the California Energy Commission selects projects.



Last update:

The California Energy Commission (CEC) has selected 15 hydrogen fuelling station projects and will hand $31.7 million in combined funding, as well as a one connector station project worth $1.5 million, reports NGT News. 

Eight of  the fuelling stations for hydrogen-powered vehicles will be built by First Element Fuel, which already participated in a similar project with CEC in 2015.  

As PetrolPlaza reported, the remaining seven stations will be build by a partnership of Shell and Toyota, receiving over $16 million in funding from CEC.

California has been a long supporter of zero emission vehicles and alternative fuels. It has a strong electric vehicle network and is now focusing on the development of a successful hydrogen fuelling market.
