LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa.,
Nov. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- Air Products' (NYSE:APD) Eric
Guter, vice president, hydrogen for
mobility solutions, will take part in a keynote conversation
on hydrogen's role in the clean energy transition at 1:50 p.m. PT on Thursday, November 18 at CoMotion
LA being held at the Japanese American National Museum in
Los Angeles, California.
Guter will join CoMotion's Chief Executive Officer John Rossant to discuss how Air Products is
working to create innovative solutions to help speed the energy
transition.
"Sustainability is our growth strategy at Air Products. We have
made significant investments to help build the hydrogen economy.
The journey is well underway. Today there are heavy duty vehicles
from Europe to Los Angeles fueled with hydrogen produced,
distributed and supplied by Air Products," said Guter. "The key now
is to scale up, to create the infrastructure so when a business or
government wants to make the switch to zero-emission vehicles on a
major scale, they know they have a secure, reliable and consistent
option. We look forward to continuing to work with our customers to
build a cleaner energy future."
In addition to the keynote discussion, Air Products will
showcase its hydrogen for mobility solutions at booth 10 on
CoMotion LA's trade show floor. Attendees are invited to visit the
booth to learn how Air Products can support their company's
sustainability journey and learn more about Air Products' recently
announced projects, including a $4.5
billion blue hydrogen clean energy complex in
Louisiana.

Hydrogen is an essential part of decarbonizing the
transportation sector. Hydrogen fuel cells are gaining momentum as
the technology of choice compared to batteries in heavy-duty
applications due to faster refuel times, longer range, and larger
payloads, while performing better in extreme climate conditions.
Hydrogen as a transportation fuel most closely mirrors the
traditional transportation fuel experience. Air Products works
across all facets of the hydrogen value chain, including
production, distribution, storage, and dispensing and has been a
pioneer in hydrogen fueling for decades. As global leader in
hydrogen production, Air Products has hands-on operating experience
in over 250 hydrogen fueling station projects in 20 countries, and
the company's technologies are used in over 1.5 million fueling
operations annually. To learn more about Air Products hydrogen for
