California's Tyson Eckerle: Hydrogen presents a huge opportunity to transform our energy system

“We’ve made a lot of progress in California. The bottom line with hydrogen stations is creating a hydrogen network is hard, it’s really hard, but it’s also doable,” Eckerle continued.

“We started with light duty and we have 43 stations that are open and operating in California today that we’re really excited about. We’re bridging into medium and heavy-duty as well.”

“The private sector is really stepping up in a major way and started to take the lion’s share of responsibility for building out that network on the pathway to the 165 stations identified.”

Eckerle said the challenge associated with building out the network is bigger than any one company or agency.

“To do it right you have to take a systems approach,” he told conference attendees.
