make
| Polymer water electrolysis
Hydrogen is produced by electrolyzing water in an electrolysis cell that uses a solid polymer membrane. While alkaline water electrolysis uses an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide, this method uses pure water as the raw material. It utilizes the know-how of PEFC (solid polymer electrolyte fuel cell) evaluation test equipment. |

High Temperature water vapor Electrolysis (SOEC)
Using a high-temperature electrolysis cell that uses oxide-based solid electrolytes (Solid Oxide Electrolysis), such as conductive ceramics, hydrogen is produced by electrolyzing high-temperature water vapor at approximately 700°C. Heat can be used for electrolysis. |
・SOEC evaluation device |
Alkaline water electrolysis
Hydrogen is produced by electrolyzing an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide. Hydrogen is produced at the cathode, and oxygen and water are produced at the anode. In order to respond to fluctuations in the output of replay energy, research into electrolyte membranes (membrane water electrolysis) is being actively conducted. |

Fossil fuel reforming (partial oxidation/ water vapor)
Partial reforming: Hydrocarbon fuel is reacted with water vapor at high temperatures (800°C) to produce hydrogen. Carbon dioxide is also produced as a by-product. water vapor reforming: Fuel is first mixed with air and then burned to produce a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. |

carry
| Organic Hydride
Hydrogen is reacted with toluene to produce methylcyclohexane (MCH), which is then transported and stored, and hydrogen is extracted and used through a dehydrogenation reaction at the point of demand. The toluene remaining after dehydrogenation is returned to the MCH manufacturing plant. |

| High pressure hydrogen (hydrogen station/hydrogen pump)
Hydrogen stations are spreading all over the country. In order to transport hydrogen efficiently, it needs to be compressed. Electrochemical hydrogen pumps can compress hydrogen using replay energy. |

use
| Stationary fuel cells (home and industrial SOFC)
Hydrogen extracted from city gas or LP gas, or hydrogen obtained by electrolyzing replay energy, is subjected to a chemical reaction with oxygen in the air to generate the electricity and heat needed for daily life. |
