Toyota's Next-Generation Hydrogen Refuelling Systems Revolutionizing Infrastructure
Key Ideas
  • Toyota Motor Europe collaborates with HRS and Engie to develop faster and cost-efficient hydrogen refuelling systems.
  • The Twin Mid Flow Technology enables quick refuelling of heavy-duty and light-duty vehicles, supporting EU's hydrogen infrastructure goals.
  • Partnership aims to revolutionize hydrogen refuelling stations, reduce installation costs, and align with EU's AFIR targets by 2030.
  • RHeaDHy project, funded by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, focuses on high-performance refuelling stations for heavy-duty vehicles, emphasizing quick refuelling times.
Toyota Motor Europe has joined forces with Hydrogen Refuelling Solutions (HRS) and Engie to pioneer next-generation hydrogen refuelling systems aimed at enhancing efficiency and supporting the EU's push for hydrogen infrastructure. The innovative Twin Mid Flow Technology at the core of this initiative boasts a higher-flow dual nozzle, facilitating rapid refuelling of heavy-duty and light-duty vehicles in under ten minutes and five minutes, respectively. This collaboration seeks to develop compatible hydrogen refuelling stations for trials under the EU-funded RHeaDHy project from the fourth quarter of 2025. The technology's ability to serve both vehicle types from a single dispenser is poised to revolutionize the hydrogen refuelling station model, potentially reducing installation costs significantly. By aligning with the EU's Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR) targets, which strive for hydrogen stations every 200km by 2030, this project aims to drive the growth of hydrogen ecosystems. Funded by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, the RHeaDHy project, part of the EU's Horizon Europe program, concentrates on developing high-performance refuelling stations to cater to heavy-duty vehicles, emphasizing quick refuelling times for 700 bar hydrogen trucks. Toyota Motor Europe's dedication to advancing hydrogen ecosystems and fostering zero-carbon emission applications through partnerships reflects a positive sentiment towards hydrogen technology's future prospects.
