The California Energy Commission (CEC) has released a new grant opportunity for hydrogen refueling infrastructure: GFO-25-607, the Hydrogen Infrastructure Project Opportunity (HIPO), which offers up to $45 million to fund the deployment of hydrogen refueling stations serving light-, medium-, and heavy-duty fuel cell electric vehicles. Applications must be submitted by June 19, 2026. Applicants may propose one or more of…

The California Hydrogen Coalition (CHC) is co-sponsoring Senate Bill 1424 (Archuleta), legislation that would allow zero-emission vehicle fueling and charging infrastructure to qualify for the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration's partial sales and use tax exemption currently available to manufacturing and power generation equipment.

The California Hydrogen Business Council (CHBC) is co-sponsoring Assembly Bill 1849, legislation that would require the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to assess the amount of decarbonized gaseous fuel needed for hard-to-electrify end uses statewide. The bill recently cleared the Assembly Natural Resources Committee on a 10-0 vote, with four members abstaining. It heads next to the Assembly Utilities and…

The Hydrogen Fuel Cell Partnership (H2FCP) has published a new, extensive Hydrogen Myths & Facts resource and corresponding graphics to give our members a direct, credible tool for those conversations.

California’s hydrogen refueling network continues to face a challenging period, with ongoing supply disruptions and infrastructure constraints affecting station availability statewide. Here’s a detailed look at the current status and key developments over the past month. Current Station Status As of early April, there are 31 hydrogen refueling stations operational across California. However, a significant portion of the network remains…

“Cleaner freight corridors don't happen by themselves,” said Bill Elrick, Executive Director of H2FCP. “They require fueling stations along the routes trucks actually run, hydrogen supply chains built out to match growing demand, and fleet operators with the tools and support to make the switch.”

Drayage (i.e., the short-distance transport of shipping containers or freight) is one of the hardest use cases to decarbonize. The payload demands can be unforgiving, duty cycles relentless, and the refueling window short. And that's exactly why the truck Savage Companies (Savage) and Symbio North America (Symbio) just commissioned matters to the hydrogen future. The companies recently announced that their…

Hyundai Motor recently announced the deployment of eight XCIENT Fuel Cell Class-8 trucks in Uruguay, marking South America's first-ever fleet operation of hydrogen-powered heavy-duty trucks. The fleet is part of the Kahirós Project, a green hydrogen logistics initiative focused on decarbonizing timber transport in Uruguay.

The Florida-based company (H2FCP Associate Member) recently announced the successful commissioning and validation of its Cryostat CS900 Liquid Hydrogen Simulation Test Platform, a unified system that integrates hydrogen liquefaction, controlled storage, and transfer within a single LH₂ infrastructure.

A recent lifecycle assessment by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) confirmed that hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) can match battery electric vehicles (BEVs) in greenhouse gas emissions when fueled with hydrogen produced from renewable electricity.
