Corvus Energy, consortium advances maritime fuel cell systems project with Toyota
Japan-headquartered Toyota is set to supply its hydrogen fuel cell technology to global energy storage company Corvus Energy and its consortium to start developing fuel cell systems for the maritime industry as decarbonization objectives in shipping gather pace.
“Decarbonization is inevitable and at Toyota, we are convinced that hydrogen will play a central role in creating a better future, both environmentally and economically,” Thiebault Paquet, director of the Fuel Cell Business Group at Toyota Motor Europe said in a statement published by Corvus Energy on Feb. 1.
Production will be located in Bergen, Norway, and Toyota’s recently established Fuel Cell Business group in Brussels will work with Corvus Energy and its consortium members to offer fuel cell solutions for marine applications, Corvus Energy said.
