CleanTechies Podcast

This is probably the most informative conversation I've had in a long time. Very thankful for Corey Staller, the Director of Engineering at Celadyne Technologies (and Forbes 30 under 30 honoree). They are doing R&D and developing materials that will help fuel cell tech in achieving cost parity for the heavy industries with conventional motors. This episode speaks mostly to freight shipping. In the episode, we also address policy, infrastructure, and supply chain issues. Please enjoy today's episode and look out for another discussion about the fuel tank for hydrogen later this week. (nice little double whammy). Links: Celadyne Technologies Website: https://www.celadynetech.com/Connect with Corey on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cstaller/Check out our Sponsor, NextWave Partners: https://www.next-wavepartners.com/Join the Slack Channel:  https://cleantechies.slack.com/join/shared_invite/zt-pd2drz6d-N~9nURU5JlyMXv2ZiO5bAQ#/shared-invite/emailSubscribe to the Newsletter: https://www.silasmahner.com/ctnewslettersignupHMU on Twitter: @silasmahnerSupport the show: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/silasmahner__________We are proud to continue working with NextWave as our official show sponsor for this podcast.
