The Pavilion will showcase a fuel cell vehicle along with products and equipment from several OEM and supplier members, including DaimlerChrysler, Ballard Power Systems, Delphi Corporation, Gore Fuel Cell Technologies, and Nuvera Fuel Cells. Expert staff from the companies and sponsoring associations will be on hand to answer questions. Brochures and demonstration pieces from many of 120 plus USFCC members will be available. 

This is the third year the US Fuel Cell Council has partnered with the CaFCP. Last year's pavilion showcased OEM vehicles. This year's focus is on technologies, communications, and testing. 
OEMs, suppliers and fuel cell manufacturers within the USFCC's Transportation and Materials & Components Working Groups along with its Joint Hydrogen Quality Task Force have produced critically needed technical documents that has established common ground and charted a path forward to commercialization of fuel cell technology.

"With gasoline prices projected to reach $3 a gallon by summer, the focus on fuel cells is not merely timely, but necessary," said Robert Rose, USFCC executive director. "Fuel cells can reduce reliance on imported oil and take the automobile out of the environmental debate. Hundreds of buses, cars, and off-road vehicles and dozens hydrogen fueling facilities are proving feasibility around the world today. Here in the US, the industry has launched pre-commercial fleet demonstrations, aiming for commercial readiness in the next decade." 

The SAE World Congress is the largest Original Equipment service, parts, and components exhibition in the world. 

With more than 120 members, the US Fuel Cell Council is the voice of the fuel cell industry. For more information on USFCC, visit www.usfcc.com.
