This project is an expansion of our existing partnership with SunLine that began a few years ago when we completed a compressed natural gas station in Thousand Palms, said Mike Mackey, President of Nikkiso CE&IG Fueling and Solutions<\/strong>. Through that project we forged a strong relationship that led to the opportunity of delivering SunLines new hydrogen station. We look forward to working together for years to come as they fully transition to a zero-emissions fleet.<\/p>\n Nikkisos market-leading hydrogen fueling stations provide 24\/7 hydrogen fueling capability to help keep SunLines buses in the Coachella Valley region on schedule. The facilitys high-performance, dual-hose dispensers meet H35 and H70 fueling protocols, and can fuel a bus in less than 10 minutes. The station is also capable of unlimited back-to-back fueling.<\/p>\n As the only public transportation provider in the Coachella Valley region, we are committed to bringing zero-emission transportation to the three million passengers we serve annually, said Mona Babauta, CEO\/General Manager at SunLine Transit Agency<\/strong>. This station represents a significant milestone on our journey to convert our entire fleet to hydrogen fuel cell buses for the benefit of our customers, our community, and the planet.<\/p>\n SunLine Transit plans to open a third dual-hose dispensing unit for public use in the next few weeks making clean hydrogen fuel accessible to private and commercial vehicles in the region and driving further adoption of low-carbon technologies. The stations strategic position between Los Angeles and Phoenix lends itself to long-distance routes, allowing cars and long-haul trucks and buses traveling through the region to expand their current range.<\/p>\n Key facts about Nikkisos hydrogen fueling solutions<\/strong><\/p>\n About Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group<\/strong> To learn more about Nikkiso CE&IG visit NikkisoCEIG.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Media contact<\/strong> About SunLine Transit Agency<\/strong> To learn more about SunLine Transit Agencys services and policies, visit SunLine.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n A photo accompanying this announcement is available at https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/NewsRoom\/AttachmentNg\/2f39b576-d365-4013-b9ef-af93e870a487<\/a><\/p>\n\n

SunLine provides public transit services in Californias Coachella Valley spanning 1,120 mile-service area and carrying approximately 3 million riders. It has pioneered zero-emission bus deployments, particularly for hydrogen fuel cell electric buses (FCEB). In 1993, SunLines Board adopted a voluntary policy of pursuing alternative fuel solutions that provide the lowest possible emissions, which led to SunLine becoming the first transit agency in the state to convert its entire fleet to compressed natural gas (CNG). SunLine is committed to transitioning its entire bus fleet to zero-emission by 2035.<\/p>\n
