How We Can Transition to a Low Carbon Future: An interview with Patrick Molloy of the Rocky Mountain Institute
"I think there's a preconception in a lot of places that fuel cells versus battery electric vehicles is the right conversation. I disagree with that. Fuel cell electric vehicles offer a very distinct set of advantages for certain use cases. In other cases, battery electric vehicles will be a very strong option. Our focus should be on removing internal combustion engines and moving toward a situation where we have a zero carbon solution for all of mobility."
Driving towards a greener future: Nikola’s freight expectations
“Our first pilot hydrogen station is going to be installed next year in Arizona, and that’s where Anheuser-Busch has a location,” affirms [Jesse] Schneider [executive vice president of Nikola Motor], “and in 2022, we’ll be spreading out to California – planning to ramp up to 10 stations to California and then expand beyond that.”

Nel ASA: Establishes joint venture to supply green hydrogen to Hyundai trucks in Norway
Nel Fuel AS, a subsidiary of Nel ASA today announces the establishment of Green H2 Norway, a joint venture together with H2 Energy AS (H2 Energy), Greenstat AS (Greenstat) and Akershus Energi Infrastruktur AS (Akershus Energi). Green H2 Norway will establish renewable hydrogen production facilities in Norway to supply hydrogen to Hyundai trucks which are expected in Norway from 2020.

California and Seven States Commit to Faster Transition to Zero-Emission Trucks and Buses
Today California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island and Vermont committed to move forward together to develop an agreement and action plan to put hundreds of thousands more zero-emission trucks and buses onto their roads and highways. The Statement of Intent announced today is intended to support accelerated deployment of medium- and heavy-duty zero emission trucks and buses.
Ballard Receives $19.2M Order from Weichai-Ballard JV for MEAs to Power Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles in China
Once operational, the Weichai-Ballard JV production facility will begin the manufacture of next-generation LCS fuel cell stacks and LCS-based modules to power Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs) for the China market. The Weichai-Ballard JV is expected to have initial production capacity of 20,000 fuel cell stacks, or 10,000 modules, based on a two-shift operation.

Cheaper catalyst can generate hydrogen in a commercial device
Researchers have shown for the first time that a cheap catalyst can split water and generate hydrogen gas for hours on end in the harsh environment of a commercial electrolyzer -- a step toward clean, large-scale hydrogen production for fuel, fertilizer and industry.
