The working prototype of its portable hydrogen cartridge has a cartridge design that will facilitate the everyday transport and supply of hydrogen energy to power a broad range of daily life applications in and outside of the home. Toyota and Woven Planet will conduct Proof of Concept (PoC) trials in various places, including Woven City, a human-centred smart city of the future currently being constructed in Susono City, Shizuoka Prefecture.
Toyota and Woven Planet are studying a number of viable pathways to carbon neutrality and consider hydrogen to be a promising solution. Hydrogen has significant advantages. Zero Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is emitted when hydrogen is used. Furthermore, when hydrogen is produced using renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass, CO2 emissions are minimised during the production process as well. Hydrogen can be used to generate electricity in fuel cell systems and can also be used as a combustion fuel.

Benefits of using Hydrogen Cartridges

  • Portable, affordable, and convenient energy that makes it possible to bring hydrogen to where people live, work, and play without the use of pipes.
  • Prototype dimensions: 400 mm (16”) in length x 180 mm (7”) in diameter.
  • Target weight: 5 kg (11 lbs).
  • Swappable for easy replacement and quick recharging.
  • Volume flexibility allows for a broad variety of daily use applications.
  • Small-scale infrastructure can meet energy needs in remote and non-electrified areas and be swiftly dispatched in the case of a disaster.
