List of fuel cell forklift locations
When searching Indeed.com for either “fuel cell” or “hydrogen” jobs in California, there are 5 pages of jobs for each of these searches. When I conducted a similar search a couple of years ago there was only 1 page of jobs for each of these searches.
And, you know a new technology is starting to come of age, when a forklift technician job routinely lists the servicing of hydrogen fuel cells as one of many responsibilities, qualifications, requirements and skills.
