Honda Opens Hydrogen Station - 2/11/2010
When it comes time to refuel Honda’s FCX Clarity fuel-cell car with hydrogen, the company is letting the sun shine in.
Last week, Honda announced that it had begun operating a “next generation” solar hydrogen refueling station, using Honda’s own solar cells, at its Torrance research and development headquarters.
The new solar station is small enough to fit into a Clarity owner’s garage, and that’s its intended home. “We’ve eliminated the compressor, which was the largest and most expensive component,” said a Honda spokesman, Chris Naughton. “The station pulls in solar energy during the day and then the customer can slow-fill with hydrogen over an eight-hour period at night.”
Honda claims that its smaller station is the world’s most compact, as well as the first home unit without a compressor.
