| SCOTTSDALE,
Ariz.--ECOtality, Inc. (OTC BB: ETLY), a technology innovator that addresses
the global energy challenge by developing and commercializing renewable
energy solutions, today announced a partnership with APS to educate the
public on green issues through Arizona's first hydrogen fuel cell bus -
the ECObus.
"APS is a logical partner for ECOtality
to further our promotion of clean technologies," said Jonathan Read, CEO,
ECOtality. "By working with APS, we are able to educate the public and
demonstrate that hydrogen is a viable alternative fuel that produces zero
emissions."
As part of the relationship, APS
will provide services, educational materials and hydrogen fuel for the
ECObus at its Hydrogen Park in downtown Phoenix. The APS Hydrogen Park
was constructed in 1920 for the production of gas for the city of Phoenix
to illuminate its street lights. The transformation of the facility, completed
in 2002, currently supplies hydrogen compressed and natural gas or a combination
of both to vehicles that operate on such fuels.
"APS is committed to supporting natural
and clean energy development for the state of Arizona. In addition, this
partnership presents a good opportunity to further educate students and
the public about renewable energy," said Peter Johnston, manager, technology
development, APS.
The ECObus, a mobile learning center,
will serve as a symbol for hydrogen education and to educate the public
on clean technologies and will tour the state for three months. The ECObus
will be launched on Tuesday, February 27 in conjunction with Arizona's
Clean Cities Coalition event. For more information about the ECObus, visit
