Honda to sell next-generation hydrogen fuel cell systems

Japanese automaker Honda will begin selling next-generation hydrogen fuel cell systems developed in conjunction with General Motors specifically for automobiles, starting in the middle of this decade.

As reported by Ukrinform, this was reported by Kyodo News.

As part of its carbon reduction target, the company aims to initially sell 2,000 units per year, then increase this number to 60,000 units in 2030.

Honda also hopes to sell “several hundred thousand” of these systems by the second half of the next decade.

The company said its fuel cell systems could be used to power not only passenger cars, but also commercial trucks, stationary power plants and construction equipment.

He said that although the need to build infrastructure for hydrogen fuel remains an issue, hydrogen fuel cells that generate electricity through a chemical reaction between oxygen and hydrogen without emitting carbon dioxide are touted as a solution to global warming.

As reported by Ukrinform, British company Rolls-Royce has announced the successful launch of a hydrogen-powered aircraft engine, a first in the global aviation industry.
