Honda showcase vision for low carbon society at la galerie des solutions

• Honda to showcase its range of mobility and energy management technologies at La Galerie des Solutions, a connected event to the 21^st UN convention on climate change (COP21)
• Honda’s ‘Generate-Use-Get Connected’ philosophy demonstrates vision for ‘smart communities’ of the future
• Mock-ups of Smart Hydrogen Station (SHS) and Power Creator preview a solution for creating hydrogen from renewable energy
• Power feeding device Power Exporter 9000 demonstrates a solution to provide power for homes in times of emergency from EVs and FCVs such as Clarity Fuel Cell
• Other highlights include the demonstration of EV charging technologies currently being trialled in the Republic of the Marshall Islands

Under the theme “generate, use and get connected for energy”, Honda will exhibit a range of low carbon and energy management technologies at La Galerie des Solutions, a connected event to the ‘COP21’ UN convention on climate change in Paris.

The exhibit will include a mock-up of Honda’s Smart Hydrogen Station (SHS), designed to support the hydrogen needs of a small community. Using the SHS ‘Power creator’ feature, the station has the ability to capture solar energy, use that energy to power electrolysis of water, and produce 1.5 kg of hydrogen per day. With a storage capacity of 18 kg, an operational SHS can fully fuel four FCVs. SHS technology is currently undergoing trials in Japan.

Honda vehicles on display include a mock-up of the all-new Clarity Fuel Cell and its accompanying ‘Power Exporter 9000’ device. The Power Exporter allows a compatible vehicle to provide a home with power in times of emergency or shortage. Production versions of both Clarity Fuel Cell and Power Exporter 9000 will be on sale in Japan in 2016.

Honda’s latest EV charging solutions will also be demonstrated, following the commencement of a trial using Honda Fit EVs in the Republic of the Marshall Islands.

Honda’s booth will be present at SIF 15, La Galerie des Solutions from 2^nd-9^th December.
