Today we opened our new fuel cell plant in Changshu, China. Hydrogen technologies are still developing, but fuel cells are gaining ground, especially in heavy-duty transport and industry. At the core of this technology is the catalyst. It enables the reaction that turns hydrogen into electricity, where performance, durability and resource use come together. At our plant in Changshu, we produce these catalyst materials closer to a market that is actively developing fuel cell applications. The combination of our local presence and global expertise provides a solid base as the technology continues to evolve.
