A local West Point alumnus has joined forces with an alternative power specialist to form Thayer Gate Energy, a company that is promoting hydrogen power as an alternate for fleet vehicles.

John Dodson of Highland Falls and Raymond Kenard of American Wind Power and Hydrogen, have met with West Point and other military officials, and airport executives, including those at Newburgh’s Stewart Airport, to sell the virtues of clean hydrogen powered vehicles.

Kenard said their company has made some headway already. “We actually have a contract with the State University of Buffalo to put in some fueling stations and a couple of vehicles,” he said. “We’ve made a proposal to NYSERTA to do a prototype hydrogen bus transportation system for the Albany Bus Transit Company and several other initiatives we’re beginning to work on.”

Dodson and Kenard’s technology would convert combustion engines to hydrogen powered and the byproduct of that fuel is plain water.
