Big news out of Seoul yesterday, with Hyundai revealing its long-term roadmap for fuel cell technology--Fuel Cell Vision 2030-- and reaffirming its commitment to the development of a hydrogen society. And it's not just about Hyundai's light-duty automotive program. The roadmap also outlines plans for the company to supply fuel cell systems to manufacturers of automobiles, drones, vessels, rolling stocks, forklifts and power generators. Hyundai aims to produce 700,000 fuel cell systems annually by 2030 including 500,000 units for FCEVs.

On November 20, 2018, the BC Government announced plans for a ZEV mandate for British Columbia. The legislation will rollout next year, with planned ZEV sales targets of 10% by 2025, 30% by 2030, and 100% by 2040. Part of the plan for BC's ZEV standard includes incentives for hydrogen FCEVs and infrastructure. We pulled together a short list of some of the media coverage we've seen about the announcement thus far.

Momentum continues as construction begins on the second station in HTEC’s hydrogen refueling network and HTEC moves closer to its $1M crowdfunding target.

The terms of the LOI outline the steps HTEC and HGP will take to build a partnership to develop a retail hydrogen refueling station network in Quebec and other regions in Canada.

HTEC hopes to raise at least $1,000,000 to support the build-out of retail hydrogen refueling networks across Canada.

It's not all talk as fuel cell vehicles hit the road and facilities begin producing hydrogen. This CBC story from Kyle Bakx covers FCEVs, mentions HTEC's first retail H2 station, and describes how ATCO and Enbridge are spearheading projects to use hydrogen to store electricity. 

Elon musk may call hydrogen technology 'dumb', but Toyota believes it's a better answer to the problems of distance and size of zero emission cars. (HTEC gets a mention too!)

Joint venture’s closure could help kick-start shift in focus for local fuel-cell sector.
