DesignLine has nearly completed the bus design tasks.  They are still finalizing weight reduction schemes for the bus frame.  They have selected and purchased the hydrogen storage system.  They have obtained bids and placed orders for the drive motor, inverter, and DC/DC converter.  Battery selection is still in progress as DesignLine tries to identify a new battery chemistry and vendor.

OSU obtained bids from the facilities department for fueling site work, which will determine selection of architecture, engineering, and general contracting firms.

UTCEM drafted the System Safety Plan for the program, which includes safety features and protocols for the bus and hydrogen fueling site throughout the demonstration.
