writing is prompted by the AV Press article, “Alcohol Permit for Circle K is Denied,” published on the front page of the Thursday, October 15, 2020 issue.

Within this article our Mayor, Mr. Parris, requested that this site have a public wanted Hydrogen Fuel dispensing pump included as part of its constructi­on.

Today, there are more than 8,000 registered owners of HFC powered vehicles in the state of California. This a growing community with the California mandate that NO internal combustion powered vehicle is to be sold in the state of California after 2035. With three automobile manufactur­es currently offering HFC powered autos, Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai, and eight additional auto manufactur­es in the design and testing process of their HFC powered offerings, inclusive of General Motors, and Ford, I believe it is a very smart move to begin accommodat­ing HFC powered vehicle owners.

The AV Press published articles on the establishm­ent of a Hydrogen Fuel generation plant in the Lancaster area by 2022, and Mr. Parris establishi­ng a “Hydrogen Society”, thus a Hydrogen fuel station is a natural progressio­n.

I am associated with the national Fuel Cell Hydrogen Energy Associatio­n (FCHEA), headquarte­red in Washington, D.C. In order effectivel­y significan­tly improve our damaging Climate Change unwanted environmen­t, we need to drasticall­y remove the usage of fossil fuels.

Producing electricit­y by re-newable’s, such as solar and wind, are not enough, thus, with the addition of using HFC technologi­es, we need to transform our current fossil fuel usage society to a Hydrogen Economy.

There are greater than 30 USA companies that produce HFC technology products. They are all FCHEA members. Europe and Asia are way ahead of the USA in the transforma­tion from a fossil economy to a Hydrogen Fuel economic society.

So America, lets get with it.
