Description
|
The BC Hydrogen Highway is a coordinated, large-scale demonstration and deployment program intended to accelerate the commercialization of hydrogen and fuel-cell technologies.
Targeted for full implementation by the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Vancouver and Whistler, the project will be a showcase of sustainable transportation, creating a hydrogen highway that will allow visitors to travel between the Vancouver Airport and Whistler for the 2010 Olympics.
Victoria station is the first of the Highway.
January 2008 new contracts with Air Liquide and Hydrogenics.
The new parts, supplied, operate and maintained by Air Liquide will be completed by mid 2008.
