Toyota Kirloskar Motor and Ohmium International have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to jointly develop a scalable green hydrogen-based microgrid system in India. This collaboration leverages Toyota's global expertise in fuel cell technology and Ohmium's electrolyser capabilities to explore the potential of self-contained water-to-hydrogen-to-electricity systems for applications beyond mobility. The hydrogen-based microgrid uses electrolysis to produce hydrogen from water, which can be stored or used to generate electricity on demand through fuel cells. This initiative aims to expand the role of hydrogen in creating a broader energy ecosystem, focusing on decentralized power generation. Toyota's advocacy for reducing carbon emissions through technologies like hybrids, electric vehicles, and fuel cells is further emphasized by this partnership, highlighting the versatility and scalability of hydrogen as a clean energy carrier. Despite criticisms of hydrogen being niche and not scalable, Toyota believes that microgrid solutions can enhance viability and broaden the adoption of hydrogen across various industries.
