General Motors (GM) welcomes attendees to experience a hands-on fuel cell demonstration. Watch and learn from GM fuel cell engineers as they use HYDROTEC fuel cell technology to DC fast charge several EVs to support the SAE WCX Ride and Drive. GM will have system experts on site that will discuss the use cases of the system and how it changes the traditional discussions around EV charging, both stationary and mobile. After the demonstration, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions about fuel cell systems operations, fuel cell logistics and electric vehicle charging.
Demonstrations will take place on Wednesday, April 9, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. every half hour (with a break from noon to 1:00 p.m.). Space is limited and pre-registration is highly recommended. You must be registered for WCX to gain access to the demonstration area. Walk ups may be able to be accommodated as well.
