States Continue to Lead in Fuel Cell Race - California is the undisputed U.S. (and possibly world) leader in the fuel cell race – with the largest deployments of fuel cell vehicles, buses, forklifts and other vehicles (trucks at Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles), as well as hydrogen fueling stations and stationary installations (both in number and size.)  But as the industry rapidly progresses out of the lab and into various markets, other states are helping spread the benefits around.  This is translating into more than clean, reliable power in more areas in the U.S., but also more jobs, exports and opportunities.

In Japan, interest in fuel cells goes beyond the Japanese automakers that build fuel cell electric vehicles. JHFC operates demonstration hydrogen stations in Japan that use different feedstocks  to make the fuel, and fuel cell buses are on the road in Osaka and Tokyo. In addition, residential fuel cells called ENE-FARM have been highly successful in Japan.  Japan’s 2012 budget for hydrogen and fuel cell activity is about US$240 million. Click here to read more

In Germany, the Clean Energy Partnership (CEP) transcends the competitive boundaries that exist between companies to develop transformational hydrogen technology. CEP has three working groups: hydrogen production, hydrogen infrastructure, and mobility.  The Mobility group is focused on the market penetration of fuel cell electric vehicles through widespread operation by customers. The infrastructure group is working to establish technical standards for hydrogen fueling stations and expand the German network to 50 stations by 2015. CaFCP regularly coordinates with CEP to share information and progress.
