Toyota has developed an innovative supply system that combines a hydrogen module and a fuel cell module in a portable and user-friendly design.
This system aims to provide a sustainable and efficient solution for generating electric power using hydrogen gas, marking a significant advancement in renewable energy technologies.
The hydrogen module is housed in a portable first housing that features at least one wheel for easy mobility. The main component of this module is the hydrogen cartridge, which stores the hydrogen gas required for generating electricity. The portability of this module allows it to be easily transported to different locations, making it suitable for various applications, including remote and emergency power supplies.
Similarly, the fuel cell module is housed in a portable second housing that also includes at least one wheel, enhancing its mobility. This module contains the fuel cell, which is the core component responsible for converting hydrogen gas into electric power. The design ensures that the fuel cell can be efficiently transported and set up wherever needed.
The innovative aspect of this patent lies in the mechanical and electrical connection between the hydrogen module and the fuel cell module. This connectivity allows the fuel cell to receive a consistent supply of hydrogen gas from the hydrogen module, ensuring continuous and efficient power generation. The ability to generate electric power from hydrogen gas positions this system as a viable alternative to traditional fossil fuel-based power sources.
