From Times Staff and Wire Reports
SoCal Gas to Install Electric Fuel Cell: Southern California Gas Co. said it has the first-ever contract for commercial use of a so-called electric fuel cell powered by natural gas. The cell, a low-emission electrical generation source that works like a battery, will be installed at the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s new Diamond Bar headquarters building in early 1992 under a 20-year contract. The cell, being touted as a solution to the nation’s over-reliance on fossil fuels, will provide electricity, heat and steam for the building.
