The California Air Resources Board will give four separate groups--Mebtahi Station Services, the San Francisco Airport, Shell Hydrogen,
and UCLA --a total of $1.7 million each to build four hydrogen refueling stations in Los Angeles and San Francisco, according to AutoblogGreen.
The four
stations will be compatible with fuel cell vehicles like the Honda FCX Clarity--and give Jamie Lee Curtis more refueling options. The report said that the four stations will double the amount of hydrogen fuel currently available to the public--which is amazing when you think about the bang-for-the-buck quotient. Specifically, the four stations in total will provide up to 460 kilograms of hydrogen every 24 hours. That's enough to refuel about 100 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles per day.
"Hydrogen is one of the many
fuels in California's future," said Mary Nichols, CARB's chairman, in a statement. "We need to cultivate the
industry's early growth."
