New technique

Toyota and Chiyoda Corporation have entered into a major strategic alliance. The purpose of this cooperation is jointly develop large-scale electrolysis technology. This alliance aims to intensify efforts for more efficient and competitive electrolysis equipment, thus actively contributing to the transition to a hydrogen economy.
The alliance between Toyota and Chiyoda leverages the strengths of both companies. It combines Toyota’s expertise in fuel cell technology with Chiyoda’s advanced skills in the design and construction of large-scale facilities. The ultimate goal is to create a large-scale electrolysis system to meet the growing demand in both the domestic and international markets for hydrogen production.
A key feature of this project is the development of a highly efficient electrolysis system, while being the most compact in the world. To realize this vision, this collaboration involves building a division that will meet the diverse needs of customers.

Has the appearance of fuel cell cars been announced?

If this technology is implemented, its advantages will be quite significant. Not only it halves the space occupied compared to conventional equipment, but it also provides increased ease of maintenance, simplified transportation, reduced construction time and reduces costs related to construction. In this way, both companies strive optimize costshas increasing efficiency production and guarantee the stability of the quality of systems electrolysis necessary for the production of green hydrogen.
The historic agreement between Toyota and Chiyoda marks the beginning of a promising strategic collaboration that will begin with the introduction of an electrolysis system at the Toyota Honsha Hydrogen Park plant in 2025.
This initiative embodies Toyota’s commitment to play a pioneering role in the transition to a hydrogen economy, supporting targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and paving the way for greater hydrogen production that is efficient, environmentally friendly and globally competitive.

Will this technology contribute to the emergence of fuel cell cars? That remains to be proven.
