The City of Fresno is set to become the newest member of First Public Hydrogen (FPH2), the United States' first public hydrogen utility. This move marks a significant milestone in the city's commitment to clean energy and positions Fresno as a leader in the state's clean energy future. Chair R. Rex Parris and Mayor Jerry Dyer expressed enthusiasm for Fresno joining FPH2, highlighting the benefits of connecting inland communities to the hydrogen network and boosting the local economy. The partnership with FPH2 will allow Fresno to expand its hydrogen-powered fleet, starting with FAX buses, by providing access to fueling equipment and hydrogen fuel. This growth in fueling capabilities aligns with the increasing deployment of fuel cell electric buses (FCEBs) in the FAX fleet. Through FPH2, Fresno will have access to technical expertise, procurement tools, and collaboration opportunities with other public agencies and hydrogen providers, fostering early-stage hydrogen use cases. FPH2's model aims to accelerate California's clean hydrogen economy by offering a transparent and cost-effective platform for public agencies, transit operators, and utilities to decarbonize operations. Fresno's involvement in FPH2 is expected to enhance the city's infrastructure, support long-term investment, and position the Central Valley as a hub for the next generation of energy technologies. The invitation for other public agencies to join FPH2 underscores the growing coalition dedicated to advancing clean hydrogen adoption statewide.
