In addition to the ongoing training of our own staff, we offer training to first responders, providing the specific information they need to be prepared for any possible event. AC Transit provides this service in person, on site, and has also produced a DVD explaining safety procedures and best practices for first responders. Nearly 300 East Bay first responders have already gone through this training.
In partnership with Lawrence Hall of Science at UC Berkeley and the Schatz Energy Research Center at Humboldt State University, AC Transit is developing a 10-week science education curriculum for high school classrooms around the country. This curriculum gives students hands-on experience building, testing, and using fuel cells to generate electricity.
AC Transit's program has attracted worldwide attention. Dignitaries from all levels of government and industry from four continents have toured our fueling and maintenance facilities with an eye toward replicating our successes at other sites.
