The California Fuel Cell Partnership has public tours on the fourth Friday of every month, from 1 to 3 pm. Call 916-371-2870 to confirm. See http://www.fuelcellpartnership.org

If the building is open, there are interesting displays and literature in the lobby.

Notice the DaimlerChrysler Necar in the photo, along with the 4500-gallon Hydrogen tank. The Necar just happened to drive by as I was taking the photo. The Hydrogen tank is behind a locked gate. You can see it up close on the monthly tour, which includes a refueling demonstration.

There is a conductive charging station at this site for public use. There are also several conductive charging stations in the restricted area.

Please check at the front desk or with the guard to let them know you are there charging your car, especially if it is after hours.
