Toyoda Gosei’s high-pressure hydrogen tank used on massive truck

Excessive-pressure hydrogen tanks manufactured by Toyoda Gosei are used on massive gasoline cell vehicles launched in October by Hino Motors

Excessive-pressure hydrogen tanks manufactured by Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd. are used on massive gasoline cell vehicles launched in October by Hino Motors, Ltd. Business automobiles similar to linehaul vehicles journey lengthy distances in a day and want adequate vary, and the unfold of gasoline cell vehicles is promising to satisfy these wants. Toyoda Gosei will proceed contributing to the realisation of a hydrogen society by the event and manufacturing of hydrogen tanks which are a key part of gasoline cell automobiles.

Background for growth

As a next-generation vitality supply that doesn’t emit CO2 throughout use, the unfold of hydrogen is promising for the achievement of carbon neutrality. Toyoda Gosei has leveraged its experience in polymers similar to molding know-how for  plastics and rubber in co-developing, with Toyota Motor Company, a tank that effectively shops hydrogen below excessive stress (approx. 700 atm) for the Mirai (2nd technology) gasoline cell car. These tanks have been produced at Toyoda Gosei’s Inabe Plant since November 2020. The corporate then launched a big high-pressure hydrogen tank in 2023, which has thus far been used on small vehicles and boats.

Define of use

Six Toyoda Gosei tanks are used on every truck, which might maintain about 9 occasions as a lot hydrogen* as a passenger car (Mirai).

Define of tanks used on massive truck

Diameter Approx. 50 cm
Size Approx. 190 cm Approx. 200 cm
Capability Approx. 200 L Approx. 230 L
Hydrogen filling quantity (70MPa) Approx. 8 kg Approx. 9 kg

Future outlook

Along with common mobility, together with vehicles, bikes, boats and trains, hydrogen is promising for future use in each day life. Toyoda Gosei will contribute to the achievement of a hydrogen society by offering tanks that meet hydrogen loading wants and bettering effectivity in hydrogen storage.
