Army backs the hydrogen highway

In a side bet on “green power,” the U.S. Army has awarded a $1.8 million contract to develop hydrogen filling stations for military vehicles, hoping it pays off with reduced fossil-fuel consumption and increased efficiency.



…”The United States military is dedicated to developing the latest technology that will ultimately enable the realization of a state-of-the art hydrogen powered installation vehicle fleet which supports our petroleum reduction goals,” Proton quotes Paul Skalny, director of the U.S. Army’s National Automotive Center, in its announcement this week.
