据安迅思3月31日消息称，路透社报道，丰田已经在澳大利亚墨尔本启动了一个太阳能氢生产设施。
该工厂将每天生产80公斤的氢，用于商用和客运燃料电池电动汽车。氢气是由一个200kW的电解槽产生的，它利用太阳能发电，将水分解成氢和氧。
该汽车制造商将于4月将20辆Mirai氢燃料电池汽车引入澳大利亚，并将它们组建成车队，以获得有关其运行情况的反馈。墨尔本西部的工厂是全球最大的生产、储存和分配氢气的工厂。
丰田已经售出了大约1万辆未来汽车，主要是销往日本和美国。丰田澳大利亚未来技术和出行管理经理Matthew MacLeod说道：“在澳大利亚，加油基础设施一直是引进Mirai等开创性车辆的最大挑战。因此，这是朝着纠正这一目标迈出的重要一步。”
与大多数其他富裕国家形成鲜明对比的是，澳大利亚被视为在全球范围内减少交通运输部门碳排放的落后者，没有针对清洁车辆（甚至包括混合动力或电池电动车辆）制定目标或提供补贴。
根据MRC的消息，意大利Enel集团的可再生能源子公司Enel Green Power (EGP)与Maire Tecnimont(意大利罗马)已同意在美国共同开发和建设一座绿色制氢工厂。具体地点尚未公布。

Toyota began producing green hydrogen in Australia
Toyota has started up a solar-powered hydrogen production facility in Melbourne, Australia, said Reuters.
The facility will produce up to 80kg/day of hydrogen, for use in commercial and passenger fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). The hydrogen is produced by a 200kW electrolyser that uses solar-based electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen components.
The automaker is bringing in 20 of its Mirai hydrogen fuel cell cars to Australia in April, placing them in fleets to gain feedback on how they run. The site west of Melbourne is also its biggest globally in terms of producing, storing and dispensing hydrogen.
Toyota has sold some 10,000 Mirai vehicles, mostly in Japan and the United States. “Here in Australia, refuelling infrastructure has been the biggest challenge, and still is, to introducing pioneering vehicles like the Mirai. So this is an important step forward to rectifying that,” said Matthew MacLeod, Toyota Australia’s manager of future technologies and mobility.
Australia is seen as a laggard in the global drive to cut carbon emissions from the transport sector, with no targets or subsidies for cleaner vehicles - even for hybrid or battery electric vehicles, in stark contrast to most other rich nations.
As per MRC, Enel Green Power (EGP), the renewable energy subsidiary of Italy’s Enel Group, and Maire Tecnimont (Rome, Italy) have agreed to work together on the development and construction of a green hydrogen production plant in the US. A specific location has not been given.
