As the world’s largest engine supplier, Honda has always taken a serious approach to addressing challenges to reduce CO2 emissions and to achieve zero CO2 emissions, considering those as challenges we must overcome.

While facing such challenges, Honda became one of the first companies to focus on the potential of hydrogen energy and began fundamental research of fuel cell technologies in the second half of the1980s, which was followed by the research and development of fuel cell vehicles.

And now, we are ready to utilize our fuel cell technologies to a wide variety of applications and make even more proactive contribution to the pursuit of carbon neutrality for our society.

【Honda Begins Joint Demonstration of Stationary Fuel Cell Power Station Designed to Utilize By-product Hydrogen and Repurposed Automotive Fuel Cells】

Honda has started a demonstration project jointly with Tokuyama and Mitsubishi Corporation (MC) to operate a data center using by-product hydrogen and a stationary FC power station designed to reuse FC systems from fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs).

In this demonstration project, a stationary FC power station that Honda has developed based on the assumption of reusing fuel cells recovered from FCEVs utilizes by-product hydrogen produced by Tokuyama’s salt water electrolysis business to generate electricity and supply the electricity to a distributed data center operated by MC.

Through this demonstration project, the three companies will explore the potential of reusing automotive FC systems for stationary FC power station applications, and verify the possibility of contributing to:

  1. a reduction in the economic burden on customers who will install and operate stationary FC power stations
  2. the decarbonization of electric power

【副生水素と車両からのリユースを想定した定置用燃料電池電源を活用した実証を開始】

Hondaは、株式会社トクヤマ、三菱商事株式会社 と山口県周南市で定置電源の実証を開始しました。

この実証では、トクヤマが製造する副⽣⽔素を活⽤し、Hondaが開発する定置電源で発電した電力を、三菱商事が運⽤する分散型データセンターに供給します。

この実証を通じて、⾞載⽤燃料電池の定置電源へのリユースの可能性を探索するとともに、定置電源の導⼊や運⽤にかかるお客様の経済的負担の軽減、電⼒の脱炭素化に貢献することを⽬指します。
