Eager students at Satori Summer Camp watched in anticipation as special guest professor Dave opened the valve from the small hydrogen cylinder to the fuel cell and a fan began spinning \u2013 clean electricity without combustion \u2013 almost like magic. Professor Dave is David Lott, Plug Power\u2019s senior scientist, whose day job involves working with Plug Power\u2019s core technology, including fuel cell stacks for both our material handling and stationary power products.<\/p>\n

The science of fuel cells is an everyday occurrence for Dave \u2013 his amazement came from the realization that the fuel cell demonstration he shared with the campers is older than any of the students in his class \u2013 a testament to the long-term reliability of our products!<\/p>\n

Satori Summer Camp<\/a> is a week-long enrichment program for gifted youth grades 6 to 12 hosted at the campus of Eastern Washington University, about 15 miles outside Spokane, Washington. The camp\u2019s course offerings feature a wide variety of classes, some of which have included multimedia design, journalism, brain science, sculpture, archeology, acting, literary criticism and, of course, fuel cells.<\/p>\n

We were able to check in with Dave one afternoon to get his take on Satori Summer Camp, fuel cells and the process of enlightenment.<\/p>\n
