Massachusetts gets its first hydrogen station

In conjunction with a visit from the traveling road show that is the National Hydrogen Road Tour, the first filling station for the energy carrier in Massachusetts has opened near Boston. Nuvera Fuel Cells has opened a hydrogen pump at its U.S. headquarters in Billerica, MA. To mark the occasion, the hydrogen-fueled vehicles that are making their way across the country stopped by the facility to top up their tanks. These vehicles include the Mercedes-Benz F-Cell, a Honda FCX Clarity and the VW Tiguan HyMotion got compressed hydrogen gas. The Nuvera PowerTap fueling system is actually generates the hydrogen on-site from natural gas. PowerTap is designed for industrial material handling applications.
