The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) announced today that it will provide $12 million in funding for several major advanced fuel-cell bus projects to CALSTART, the California operating division of WestStart-CALSTART.<br \/>2. UTC Power will provide the fuel cell for the SunLine and AC Transit buses. New Flyer Industries will develop a purpose-built bus specifically designed for fuel-cell applications for the SunLine project.<br \/>3. The program provided targeted funding for the fuel-cell bus industry because it\u2019s seen as a likely early adopter of the technology. Hydrogen is more viable in a mass transit application because it doesn\u2019t require a widespread re-fueling infrastructure and the large fuel-storage cylinders can be placed on the roof of the buses.<br \/>4. BAE Systems will provide the hybrid propulsion system and do the systems integration on the bus.<\/p>\n<p>Full <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greencarcongress.com\/2006\/10\/fta_to_fund_12_.html\">report here<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/\">Oilgae &#8211; Oil &amp; Biodiesel from Algae<\/a><\/b><br \/><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/blog\/\">Oilgae Blog<\/a><\/b><br \/><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/algae\/oil\/biod\/research\/os\/algos.html\">algOS &#8211; Biodiesel from Algae Open Source<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/\">Oilgae &#8211; Oil &amp; Biodiesel from Algae<\/a><\/b> provides links, directory, web links resources for algae-based biofuels &amp; biodiesel.
