Mass. takes first big step away from foreign oil
Thursday, November 17, 2005
"Trying to keep up with California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Massachusetts officials moved forward today toward promoting hydrogen and fuel cell technology. The House of Representatives today passed omnibus legislation designed to provide short-term and long-term solutions to rising energy costs. Among the long-term solutions is a section of the bill offered by State Rep. Barry R. Finegold (D-Andover) that establishes the 'Massachusetts Fuel Cell Partnership.' This intends to accelerate the development and deployment of commercially viable fuel cell and related hydrogen production. Hydrogen technology is widely-viewed to be the alternative to fossil fuels." Source: townonline.com
