He oversaw one of the US Postal Service’s first significant battery electric fleet deployments.
Ivor has a unique expertise of the technologies employed across the hydrogen value chain as a result of his more than ten years as an advocate for hydrogen technology innovation. He recently oversaw the construction of a Hydrogen Readiness Plan for California’s Central Coast Region. Ivor earned a Bachelor of Science in Meteorology and Physics from the University of Reading and a doctorate in atmospheric physics from the University of Wales, Aberystwyth.
“We are excited to welcome Dr. John to our team and expect him to have an immediate impact in strengthening our planning and deployment of the Company’s first demonstration Green Hydrogen Generator,” said Dr. David Lee, CEO of NewHydrogen. “His experience in hydrogen readiness planning for the California Central Coast Tri-counties draws many parallels to what we are seeking to do at NewHydrogen. We are confident that his credentials will also positively support and complement our activities at UCLA, bringing us one step closer to achieving our corporate objectives.”
