In the 21st century, one of the most pressing social issues facing us is how to live in harmony with the environment.
Since the issue of preserving the environment cannot be addressed by any one country because it is an issue that transcends cultural and national boundaries, it must be tackled on a global scale.
Hydrogen gas has been the focus of attention in recent years as the ultimate source of energy with minimal impact on the environment. We have already made significant progress in our quest to develop gas technologies that can bring about the hydrogen energy-based society that we need.


Making hydrogen stations—hydrogen filling systems for fuel cells—practical
We are involved in the Hydrogen Project, a Japanese national government initiative aimed at promoting the use of hydrogen-fueled vehicles. Vehicles powered by fuel cells that use hydrogen energy instead of gasoline are already running on the roads, and hydrogen stations where fuel cells are refueled are in operation at many locations. Taiyo Nippon Sanso was the first in Japan to achieve the highest practical filling pressure of 70 MPa at hydrogen stations. We have also developed mobile hydrogen stations in addition to stationary stations. By extending the areas where hydrogen filling is available, we are able to satisfy a more diverse range of needs.
