Toyota made significant advancements in its hydrogen efforts by unveiling a new hydrogen-powered fleet and introducing the 3rd generation fuel cell system. At the ACT Expo’s Hydrogen Workshop, Toyota revealed its plans to launch hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric Class 8 heavy-duty trucks to replace diesel-powered vehicles in California. The company aims to reduce carbon emissions from its supply chains by deploying these trucks for logistics operations between the Port of Long Beach and the North America Parts Center California. To support this initiative, Toyota announced the construction of a hydrogen fueling station at the NAPCC campus. The highlight of Toyota's announcement was the introduction of the next-generation fuel cell technology, the Toyota Gen 3 FC system. This system is projected to be 20% more efficient and powerful than the current one, allowing heavy trucks to run up to 600,000 miles without major servicing. Toyota targets a preliminary launch of the Gen 3 FC system in or after 2027. Emphasizing the benefits of hydrogen as a sustainable fuel, Toyota's Group Vice President of Powertrain Engineering, Jordan Choby, expressed the company's commitment to long-term success in the transportation sector. Toyota envisions utilizing hydrogen from various sources, including methane byproducts from animal waste, wastewater treatment plants, and landfills. By investing in hydrogen technology and sustainable growth, Toyota aims to lead the global transportation industry towards a more environmentally friendly future.
