The initiative leverages Honda\u2019s hydrogen fuel cell technology expertise and contributes to the company\u2019s global goal to achieve carbon neutrality for all products and corporate activities by 2050. Watch a video of Honda\u2019s stationary FC power station at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/honda.us\/StationaryFuelCell\">https:\/\/honda.us\/StationaryFuelCell<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Now fully operational as a demonstration program, Honda\u2019s fuel cell power station supplies clean and quiet emergency backup power to the data center on the campus of American Honda Motor Co., Inc. In the coming years, Honda will begin applying a next-generation stationary fuel cell system to Honda manufacturing facilities and data centers globally, thereby reducing the company\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n<p>The demonstration stationary fuel cell unit has a capacity of approximately 500 kW and reuses the fuel cell systems of previously leased Honda Clarity Fuel Cell vehicles, with a design that allows the output to increase every 250 kW packaged with four fuel cells. It features the flexibility to change the layout of the fuel cell units to suit the installation environment and to accommodate cubic, L-shaped, Z-shaped, and other packaging configurations. Future stationary FC units intended for commercialization will utilize Honda\u2019s next-generation FC system jointly developed with General Motors and also set to power an all-new fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) based on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/hondanews.com\/en-US\/electrification\/releases\/release-907c81858bdfe231c1cc3d0f701d89da-honda-to-begin-us-production-of-fuel-cell-electric-vehicles-in-2024\">Honda CR-V<\/a>\u00a0coming in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last few years, the power requirements of data centers have been growing rapidly due to the expansion of cloud computing and big data utilization, and the need for backup power sources has been increasing from the perspective of business continuity planning (BCP). The Torrance fuel cell station also serves as a proof of concept for future commercialization of the power generation unit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe there\u2019s great promise in hydrogen fuel cells for backup power and offsetting potential peak power events,\u201d said Koji Moriyama, project lead of the stationary fuel cell and principal engineer with American Honda R&amp;D Business Unit. \u201cBy installing and utilizing our core technology, the fuel cell system, in various applications such as stationary power generation, Honda aims to stimulate hydrogen usage and provide clean energy for potential commercial customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Benefits of Hydrogen Fuel Cells as Backup Power<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Data centers require high-quality and reliable power, where any disruption in power supply can lead to downtime or problems such as data corruption and damage to servers.\u00a0 Typical stationary backup generators rely on diesel fuel, which result in higher carbon emissions and local air pollutants. Backup power systems utilizing hydrogen fuel cells offer a promising future for clean, yet reliable and high-quality power generation, especially when operating on so-called \u201cgreen hydrogen1\u201d made from renewable sources, with water vapor as the only emission.<\/p>\n<p>Hydrogen can be stored and transported with a high energy density and can be refilled in a short time. The \u201chydrogen circulation cycle,\u201d which starts with renewable energy, consists of three phases \u2013 \u201cgenerate,\u201d \u201cstore\/transport\u201d and \u201cuse.\u201d Starting with the use of water electrolysis technology, electricity derived from renewable energy sources can be converted into green hydrogen, making it less susceptible to fluctuations in power generation due to seasonality and weather conditions. It also becomes possible to transport the energy to where it is needed in the form of \u201cgreen hydrogen\u201d via transport by land, sea, and pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>Based on Honda\u2019s \u201cTriple Zero\u201d approach, which consists of three focus areas \u2013 carbon neutrality, clean energy and resource circulation \u2013 Honda is striving to realize a circular\/resource-recycling society that aims for zero environmental impact by 2050.<\/p>\n<p>To realize resource circulation, Honda aims to create a closed loop, circular economy that maximizes the useful life of materials in Honda products \u2013 including the fuel cell systems of Honda Clarity Fuel Cell vehicles for the demonstration stationary fuel cell unit. By developing recovery systems to recapture materials of its products when they reach end-of-life, Honda can reuse, refurbish, repurpose and recycle them into new products and foster Honda\u2019s circular economy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Honda Initiatives to Expand Hydrogen Business<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Honda is taking a proactive approach to increase the use of hydrogen as an energy carrier and will strive to expand its hydrogen business. Last fall, Honda announced that starting in 2024 it will produce2 an all-new hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) based on the recently launched, all-new Honda CR-V at its Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) in Marysville, Ohio.\u00a0The company has been developing hydrogen technologies and fuel cell vehicles for more than 30 years.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the continued applications to Honda fuel cell electric vehicles and the stationary power generation, Honda recently announced it will proceed with business development in the domains of commercial vehicles and construction equipment, as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stationary Fuel Cell Power Unit Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"992\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"3\"><strong>Output<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>1 Quad Unit<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>288kW-DC<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>2 Quad Unit Combined<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>576kW-DC<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Inverter<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>600 KVA 265\/480V with Transformer<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"2\"><strong>Dimensions<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>POWER PLANT (2x QUADS + ACCESSORIES)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>L652 cm x W262cm x H255 cm,\u00a0footprint 17.1 m<\/strong><strong><sup>2<\/sup><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Approx. 21.4ft x 8.6ft x 8.4ft, footprint 184ft<\/strong><strong><sup>2<\/sup><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Quad unit<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>255 cm X 262cm x253 cm<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Approx 8.4ft x 8.6ft x 8.3ft<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"2\"><strong>Mass<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>POWER PLANT (2x QUADS + ACCESSORIES)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>7,757kg, 17,101lb<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Quad<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>3,620kg,\u00a0 7,981lb<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Hydrogen<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Liquid\/Gas<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>ISO14687-2\u00a017-35 bar(g)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Cooling<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>External Cooling Tower<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Heat Rejection:385kW (109ton), Flow rate:930lpm, 480V, 200A(Breaker)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"5\"><strong>Function<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Data Acquisition\/Remote Monitoring\/Over the Air Update<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Wireless 4G, Onboard SSD<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Water Proof<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>NEMA 3<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Ventilation<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>IEC62282-3<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Safety Monitor<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Smoke, H2, Temp, Current, Voltage, Isolation Monitor, Cabin Pressure<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>E-Stop<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Plant, Cooling Tower, Grid Inverter<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Code\/Standards<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><strong>NFPA 853, IEC62282, NFPA 55,UL1741 (grid inverter)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Field Evaluated Equipment (Complied with applicable ANSI\/UL or NFPA safety standards)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Honda Commitment to the Environment<\/strong><br \/>\nHonda is committed to addressing global environmental and energy issues by striving to realize carbon neutrality for all products and corporate activities by 2050.\u00a0Toward this goal, Honda will strive to make battery-electric and fuel cell electric vehicles represent 100% of auto sales in the U.S. and globally by 2040.<\/p>\n<p>Honda also is\u00a0working to reduce the environmental impact of its business operations.
