什么时候空气产品（（NYSE: APD) Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer John McGlade drove to work this morning, he did so with an eye on the future and with the eyes of a lot of fellow drivers watching him. As the top executive for Air Products, the world's leading hydrogen provider, McGlade is quite familiar with hydrogen's potential for leading the transformation to cleaner energy. Today McGlade initiated a hydrogen outreach program by traveling to work in an Air Products-branded Chevrolet fuel cell vehicle. Powered by hydrogen, the vehicle's only emission is water vapor.
"It is a quiet ride with more pep and acceleration than I expected. It's been fun to see the reaction of other drivers since the car's decals definitely catch your eye," said McGlade. "We think the hydrogen economy can move from novelty to an established alternative energy source. As the leader in providing hydrogen and its fueling infrastructure, we want to do our part to increase the public's awareness about advancements in this technology."

氢燃料电池仅将氢用于燃料，仅生产水蒸气排放。氢驱动的燃料电池提供了一种可持续的技术，从而实现了更干净的环境。“在燃料电池电动汽车中使用氢是一个很好的环境故事，并为社会提供了可持续的能源机会。从商业角度来看，我们有大量客户，供应商和合作伙伴访问我们的总部。麦格莱德说：“关于并展示我们的技术和氢的能力，而不是在现场拥有车辆，公共汽车和加油站。”
The Air Products-branded fuel cell vehicle is an extension of GM's highly successful "Project Driveway" program, which has amassed more than 1.3 million miles of real-world driving. GM launched a test fleet of Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell electric vehicles in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Southern California in late 2007. Project Driveway is the largest fuel cell transportation demonstration in the world.
"As we move to a production-intent fuel cell system, there is still a lot of value in strategically placing the current vehicles with businesses like Air Products," said Charles Freese, GM executive director of Global Fuel Cell Activities. "We look forward to the additional learning that our business-to-business program yields."
Air Products总部的氢驱动雪佛兰燃料电池电动汽车加入了一辆以氢为氢的班车，该车已经在校园内运营，并且是当地社区外展教育计划的一部分。两辆车将在该公司的氢加油站加油，该站于2008年举办了全国性的道路旅行活动，并为七个汽车制造商的氢燃料电池电动汽车加油。有关空气产品的氢加油技术的详细信息：

正如在社区活动和计划中看到的公共汽车一样，雪佛兰燃料电池汽车也将成为航空产品员工领导的外展工作的一部分。“人们对氢气和燃料电池有很多疑问。他们听说了这些汽车并阅读了有关技术的信息。与让我们的员工了解我们在技术中的作用相比，快速增加学习的方法是更好的方法将这辆车带到杂货店，学校，青年体育赛事和其他公共计划。将这辆车带到这些公共场所将产生教育的机会来讨论这种替代能源技术。”，空气产品的能源业务。
