Toyota Motor Corporation , reaffirms commitment to hydrogen vehicles despite challenges, announcing plans to boost electric car production. The Japanese automaker, known for the Mirai fuel cell car, sold fewer than 4,000 hydrogen vehicles last year but remains dedicated to advancing fuel cell technology. Toyota emphasizes its commitment to hydrogen with the Toyota Hydrogen Factory in Europe, set to become a major hydrogen fuel cell market by the decade's end. The company plans a substantial investment of £38.5 billion from the European Commission’s Green Deal and nearly £250 million for refueling stations. Toyota aims to address infrastructure challenges while expanding into heavy-duty transport. Additionally, they unveil a hydrogen-powered Hilux pickup truck and outline future plans for cheaper batteries and ultra-fast, solid-state batteries.

♻ H2 | Senior Chemical Engineer Specialised in Hydrogen Technology, Electrolysers and Fuel Cells at GRS
🚗⛽ Toyota Wants to Revolutionise #Hydrogen Car Refuelling with #HomeStations! 💡🏠 #HydrogenCar #ToyotaMirai Sales of #fuel-cell cars struggle to take off, especially due to weak coverage of hydrogen refuelling stations. Toyota, in its drive to increase sales of its Mirai model, has filed a patent with the US Patent and Trademark Office. The patent describes a facility called a "Hydrogen Sharing Network" designed to produce and store hydrogen. 📄 The document, some twenty pages long, discloses a compact station equipped with a fuel cell. The proposed concept involves production and distribution stations shared with the community, aiming for a more accessible and convenient way to refuel hydrogen. 💬 What do you think about Toyota's initiative to make it easier to refuel hydrogen cars? Do you think individual home stations can boost the adoption of hydrogen vehicles? Share your ideas! 🌐🚗 🔗 More details here: https://bit.ly/3NyIuRY Toyota leading the way towards more sustainable mobility! 🌿🔗

Will hydrogen overtake batteries in the race for zero-emission cars? Many of the strongest claims for hydrogen’s role in the automotive world come from chief executives at the heart of the industry. Japan’s Toyota is the most vocal proponent of hydrogen, and its chair, Akio Toyoda, last month said he believed the share of battery cars would peak at 30%, with hydrogen and internal combustion engines making up the rest. Toyota’s Mirai is one of the only hydrogen-powered cars that is widely available, alongside the Nexo SUV from South Korea’s Hyundai. Oliver Zipse, the boss of the German manufacturer BMW, said last year: “Hydrogen is the missing piece in the jigsaw when it comes to emission-free mobility.” BMW may be investing heavily in battery technology but the company has its BMW iX5 Hydrogen fuel cell car in testing – albeit using Toyota fuel cells. Zipse said: “One technology on its own will not be enough to enable climate-neutral mobility worldwide.” Read the full article below in the comments. #hydrogen #ev #battery #renewableenergy #zeroemissions

“11 Things To Know About Toyota's #HydrogenCombustionEngine ” Ryan Callahan - Apr 8, 2024 “As #fossilfuels become less viable, car companies have begun searching for alternative fuel sources. For the past 20 years, Toyota has been exploring a unique option: #hydrogen . While previously it had used the first element to power an electric motor, the #automaker is now working on a Toyota Hydrogen engine. Toyota is currently developing a hydrogen combustion engine and seems to be betting big on it.” “Development is well underway, with a viable prototype already rolling on the road. There are challenges facing Toyota, besides the dearth of #hydrogenfuelinfrastructure worldwide. One of them involves improving the efficiency of #hydrogenfuelcombustion . Determined to show that hydrogen is a viable energy source for automobiles, the company is hard at work trying to find solutions to this and other obstacles.” https://lnkd.in/eEHxx969?

Hydrogen is the future, not EV, apparently. Is this another myth being spread online, by people that don’t understand the auto industry, or does it really have legs? Let’s take a look at the current market for one of the few hydrogen cars available worldwide, and see how it compares. The 2024 Toyota Mirai enters the market with a starting price of $50,190, making it a pricey option even in the XLE base trim loaded with features. However, this places it in a challenging position, especially considering there are numerous electric vehicles of similar size available at lower starting prices. Despite Toyota's overall success in 2023, with an impressive 2,248,477 units sold, the Mirai's niche appeal reflects in its sales of only 2,737 units. Surpassing the iconic Supra by 85 examples, the Mirai still struggles to gain significant traction in the any market worldwide. Refueling the Mirai comes with a hefty cost, as it requires spending $201.60 to refill its 142.2-liter tank with 5.6 kg of hydrogen. True Zero, the leading hydrogen supplier in California, currently charges $36 per kilogram, making the hydrogen option significantly more expensive than traditional ICE cars or EV’s. While the Mirai is claimed to cover 402 miles in XLE guise and 357 miles in Limited specification, real-world testing has shown it barely reaching 300 miles. You could travel the same distance in an ICE for roughly $70, and the same distance in an EV for as little as $20. The disparity between claimed and tested ranges, combined with the increasing cost of hydrogen, diminishes the car's overall value. Despite Toyota's assertion that complimentary hydrogen would cover 22,500 miles, based on the tested range, the Mirai struggles to compete with more cost-effective alternatives in the market. How long do we have to wait, until Hydrogen is here and not just the future? #hydrogen #toyota #electriccars #electricvehicles #ev #evcharging #sustainability

“Toyota demonstrates why #hydrogencombustionengines are not the answer” FEBRUARY 20, 2024 - TIM EDEN “Toyota is one the legacy #automakers still betting on #hydrogentechnology to save their business, despite clear evidence that #batteryelectricvehicles are winning the race for #zeroemissionstransport “ “Alongside development of #hydrogenfuelcellvehicles , Toyota has also been building liquid hydrogen fuelled engines for racing.” Jason from the Engineering Explained YouTube channel posted an excellent video last year describing Toyota’s #liquidhydrogencombustionengines .” “The video starts off with the advantages of using #liquidhydrogen over #compressedgaseoushydrogen that is normally used with #hydrogenfuelcellelectricvehicles (#FCEV) such as the Toyota Mirai and Hyundai Nexo.” “Liquid hydrogen can also be stored under atmospheric pressure, removing the need for high pressure #storagetanks . Apart from #burninghydrogen , the actual #combustion part of this prototype engine is very similar to petrol engines.” “Apart from those advantages, the video details three major problems with liquid hydrogen combustion engines that are not easy to solve. Most of the problems revolve around liquid hydrogen needing to be kept extremely cold, below minus 253 degrees celsius to prevent it #vaporising or #boilingaway .” “The #fuelpump in Toyota’s prototype vehicle needed to be swapped twice during a twenty four hour race and took three and a half hours each time.” “The #hydrogenfuelpump wears out quickly and becomes inefficient because #oillubricants cannot be used, otherwise they would contaminate the #hydrogenfuel . It is also very difficult to maintain a #goodseal between the pump components when they are cooled to this extreme temperature.” “Even though liquid hydrogen is more energy dense than compressed hydrogen gas, #largefueltanks are required for hydrogen combustion vehicles to have decent range.” “The prototype Toyota Corolla was fitted with a 150 L tank and could only drive 65 km between pit stops for refuelling. To illustrate this problem clearly, Jason calculated that a formula 1 race car would need a huge 700 L #hydrogenfueltank to drive roughly the same distance as they do using petrol.” “Keeping liquid hydrogen at minus 253 degrees celsius without it vaporising is also problematic for longer periods of time, which is why Toyota developed their prototype specifically for racing where fuel is burned quickly before it can be wasted.” “BMW produced a #hydrogencombustionvehicle called the BMW Hydrogen 7 between 2005 and 2007. During that time, BMW found it took only 10-12 days for the entire contents of the #liquidhydrogentank to #vaporise with the vehicle parked, making it impractical for passenger vehicle use.” https://lnkd.in/ekkTKKSc Source- original post Read all my posts #MariusPreston

Hydrogen combustion takes next step towards commercialisation. Toyota began development of the hydrogen-fuelled internal combustion engine technology in Japan in 2017, which then debuted in 2021 in a Corolla Sport that was raced in four rounds of the Super Taikyu series in Japan After successful testing on track, Toyota is launching a pilot programme in Australia this month to evaluate the real-world usage of its hydrogen combustion technology. The prototype Hydrogen HiAce will be driven by Australian companies interested in the potential for fit-for-purpose commercial vehicles with ultra-low CO2 tailpipe emissions The new powertrain technology, offering ultra-low CO2 tailpipe emissions, is the latest step in Toyota’s global multi-pathway approach to decarbonisation that also includes significant investments in carbon-neutral fuels as well as hybrid-electric, plug-in hybrid-electric, battery-electric and fuel-cell electric vehicles. #hydrogen #h2ice #toyota #hiace
