Hydrogen project lobbyists in California trying to get a good chunk out of $300 million state program
Democrats in the Californian state Legislature are debating how much money to give companies to build hydrogen fueling stations. A lobbying group for hydrogen supporters and suppliers, including Chevron, Shell and Toyota, is seeking a designated 30% share of money from the state Clean Transportation program, amounting to $300 million over the next decade, the Calmatters reported on 18 August.
Over the last decade, hydrogen has been earmarked for 20% of its funds. So far, the California Energy Commission has spent $202 million for hydrogen fueling stations. The state’s funding has helped create a network of just 65 hydrogen furling stations, 20 of them in Los Angeles County.

The Korea International Trade Association calls to increase patent applications for hydrogen projects
Korea’s share of global patent applications in the hydrogen storage and transportation sector over the past 10 years (2011-2020) was only 5 percent of the total, according to the report titled “Policy Research to Strengthen Korea’s Hydrogen Industry Competitiveness: Status of Fostering the Hydrogen Storage and Transportation Industry and Tasks” released by the Korea International Trade Association (KITA) on Aug. 15.
This is a huge gap compared to the European Union with 33 percent, the United States with 23 percent, and Japan with 22 percent. The report attributes this to the fact that Korea’s investment in the hydrogen industry has been lopsided toward technology investments centered on hydrogen utilization fields.

North America’s first green hydrogen passenger train to operate through the end of September
Accelera™ by Cummins, the zero-emission business segment of Cummins Inc., is powering North America’s first hydrogen passenger train named the Coradia iLint, which is manufactured by Alstom. The Coradia iLint train entered service in Canada on June 17 as part of Alstom’s demonstration project.
The train is operating with passengers on board for the entire summer season on the railway of Train de Charlevoix, an iconic line crossing the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of the Charlevoix region in the Province of Quebec, Canada.
A key element of the project is the utilization of Accelera fuel cells in conjunction with green hydrogen. Mounted to the roof of the train, the fuel cells work to convert hydrogen into electricity, which powers the train. The green hydrogen used in Alstom’s Coradia iLint train is produced by an Accelera HySTAT®-100-10 electrolyzer, which is owned and operated in Quebec by project partner Harnois Énergies.
The Coradia iLint will be operational for passenger rides through the end of September, the Accelera announced.
