Honda is repurposing a powertrain plant in Moka City, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan, to manufacture fuel cell systems for hydrogen vehicles, set to begin production in 2027. This initiative marks Honda's first facility solely dedicated to producing fuel cells developed in-house, equipped with cutting-edge technology for high-efficiency and high-quality output. The company anticipates an annual capacity of 30,000 units and is set to receive a substantial government subsidy for the project, facilitated by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI). With ambitions to capture a significant market share in the FC-powered truck sector, Honda targets a 5% share by 2030 and aims for 30% by 2040. In addition to their US launch of a hydrogen-powered CR-V, they have collaborated with GM to enhance fuel cell systems. This joint venture has resulted in a more durable and cost-effective system, showcasing Honda's commitment to advancing hydrogen technology.
