THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES FUNDING TO CTE TO DEVELOP A DEMONSTRATION PROJECT UNDER THE NATIONAL FUEL CELL BUS PROGRAM (NFCBP). THE NFCBPS GOAL IS TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMMERCIALLY VIABLE FUEL CELL BUS TECHNOLOGIES AND RELATED INFRASTRUCTURE. CTE WILL LEAD A TEAM TO DEVELOP A FUEL CELL BUS TO BE DEMONSTRATED IN OPERATIONS WITH THE ORANGE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY (OCTA) IN ORANGE COUNTY CA AND HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO JUNE 2019.THE TIME EXTENSION WILL BE USED TO RUN THE BUS FOR ANOTHER YEAR TO GATHER DATA THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE EARLIER BECAUSE OF TECHNICAL ISSUES WHICH ARE NOW RESOLVED.

WITH THE NEW STATION THE BUS WILL REFUEL ON SITE AT OCTA AND THE OPERATION WILL BECOME MORE INTEGRAL TO THE AGENCY. THIS WILL INCREASE THE VALUE OF THE PROJECT TO FTA AND ALSO JUSTIFIES AN ADDITIONAL 10 MONTHS OF OPERATION. FEDERAL AND RECIPIENT ROLES: FTA WILL ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN THE PROJECT.
