General Motors invests in mobile electricity: what plans do Americans have

Hydrotec technology can change the way multiple market segments work.

Generators powered by GM Hydrotec technology are designed to allow fast charging of electric vehicles without permanent charging points, among other uses.

Power generators are designed to allow fast charging of electric vehicles without permanent charging points.

The carmaker will build Hydrotec fuel cell systems with Honda.

GM’s generator partner, Renewable Innovations, will produce the generators at its Salt Lake City units.

General Motors and Renewable Innovations plan to implement the generators in three applications: retail charging stations for electric vehicles, a mobile power generator and a palletized mobile generator.
