NEW YORK — Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles — and the hydrogen stations to support them — are coming to New York, thanks to an aggressive plan rolled out jointly by General Motors Corp. and Shell Hydrogen LLC.
GM will be providing 13 fuel cell-powered vehicles and Shell Hydrogen LLC intends to establish New York State’s first hydrogen service station in the New York City metropolitan area in 2006, which is anticipated to involve installing a portable hydrogen-refueling module at an existing Shell station. GM and Shell will be the only team bringing fuel cell vehicles and hydrogen refueling to the New York City metropolitan area under the U.S. Department of Energy’s Infrastructure Demonstration and Validation Project.
