Toyota made a significant impact at the Goodwood event by showcasing its innovative hydrogen mobile refuelling station. This station, mounted on a truck, can store up to 60 kg of hydrogen and release it at a pressure of 350 bar. The Hytruck, as it is called, is a practical solution for refuelling hydrogen-powered vehicles like buses and trucks in locations without dedicated hydrogen stations. Interestingly, the truck carrying the station operates on biofuel rather than hydrogen. In addition to the Hytruck, Toyota also introduced the HyQube, developed by Fuel Cell Systems, a British company. The HyQube is designed to deliver hydrogen at a higher pressure of 700 bar, further emphasizing Toyota's commitment to hydrogen technology. Jon Hunt, Senior Manager Hydrogen Transformation at Toyota in Great Britain, took to LinkedIn to share the news and express excitement about the future of hydrogen in motorsports. He mentioned the potential adoption of hydrogen in endurance racing through the WEC championship and Formula 1 by the end of the decade. For individuals interested in exploring more about Toyota's hydrogen advancements, the company offers a dedicated section for articles and updates. Moreover, LinkedIn users can subscribe to a weekly newsletter to stay informed about the latest hydrogen news. This initiative by Toyota at Goodwood not only highlights the company's focus on innovation but also underscores the growing importance of hydrogen as a sustainable fuel in the automotive industry.
