Toyota develops storage module for 70 MPa automotive hydrogen tanks; transportation of H2, other applications

Green Car Congress

However, using the same tanks in a variety of types of applications requires meeting different safety standards and adjusting to each environment. Conceptual model of hydrogen tank storage module. For this reason, they are not currently used for a wide range of purposes. This is also connected to the development of this conceptual model.
