Nuvera Fuel Cells

The Nuvera powered Fiat Panda was recently sent from Logan airport, where it was part of the Green Italy exhibition currently on display, to the Italian Embassy in Washington D.C.

Ambassador Castellaneta, who visited the Green Italy exhibition when he was visiting Boston in October, was so impressed with the FIAT that he requested it be displayed at the embassy for the month of December.  If you are in the D.C. area, stop by the Italian Embassy to see the FIAT on display until January 5.

Faithful readers, I apologize for the absence in posts these past few weeks! We have been busy wrapping up the recent Hydrogen Road Tour, talking about our new PowerTap hydrogen refueling station, and responding to DOE’s fuel cell grant solicitation for 2009 (applications due today!). And, of course, trying to enjoy the last moments of August as the temperature starts to feel like fall.

Our fall calendar kicks off with an exciting event starting in mid September called Green Italy. Green Italy is taking place in Terminal E at Logan Airport, and explores the growing collaborations of Italy and Massachusetts towards addressing the global need for sustainable practices for both our society and our environment. Nuvera will be displaying the hydrogen powered Panda Fiat, currently on loan from Regione Lombardia, Italy, that is powered by Nuvera’s Andromeda fuel cell technology.

Check back here in the next few weeks to learn more about this upcoming event. In the mean time, enjoy the rest of your summer!
