SunHydro has entered into a partnership with Toyota Motor Sales, USA, Inc. for placing ten FCHV-adv (Toyota Advanced Fuel Cell Hybrid Vehicles) this fall in the area of Connecticut.
These vehicles will be supporting the new SunHydro hydrogen fueling station that is solar-powered and located at the headquarters of Proton Energy Systems in Wallingford, Connecticut. Proton Energy Systems is a global leader in the generation of on-site hydrogen and its equipment would be used in the SunHydro station.
SunHydro has expanded its business successfully to hydrogen fuel from hardwood floors. The partnership with Toyota will help connecting people with the technology of hydrogen fuel cell. Presently, SunHydro is developing an East Coast Hydrogen Highway that will facilitate a fuel cell vehicle to be driven to Florida from Maine. The station in Wallingford, Connecticut would become the first station to be located on the highway.
Upon completion, SunHydro’s Highway series would become the globe’s pioneer hydrogen fueling stations under a privately funded network. Over three years, the Toyota nationwide fuel cell demonstration program would be placing in excess of 100 FCHV-adv vehicles on the roads.
