Hydrogen Today was surprised to see a Honda stand at the European Hydrogen Week. The Japanese manufacturer reveals its intentions regarding hydrogen.

Unlike its neighbours BMW and Toyota, Honda is not exhibiting a vehicle, but a prototype of its brand new fuel cell. This new-generation module will open up new markets. The compact yet powerful fuel cell system has been designed to offer exceptional longevity and versatility across a range of applications, including commercial vehicles, public works machinery and power generation for static power supplies. Collaboration is underway with a number of customers, and should be completed by the middle of the decade.

The Japanese manufacturer, which has reviewed its strategy, is therefore showing a little more interest to Europe. As a matter of fact, it has set up a new green hydrogen production facility at its R&D centre in Germany.

Honda also reminded its intention to achieve carbon neutrality in all its activities worldwide by 2050.
