Honda has begun operating a stationary fuel cell power station on its corporate campus in Torrance, Calif. The initiative leverages Honda’s hydrogen fuel cell technology expertise and contributes to the company’s global goal to achieve carbon neutrality for all products and corporate activities by 2050, Honda says.

Now fully operational as a demonstration program, Honda says its fuel cell power station supplies clean and quiet emergency backup power to the data center on the campus of American Honda Motor Co. In the coming years, Honda says it will begin applying a next-generation stationary fuel cell system to Honda manufacturing facilities and data centers globally.
