OBAYASHI CORPORATION DEMONSTRATES HYDROGEN SUPPLY NETWORK IN NAMIE TOWN, FUKUSHIMA/HIGH PRESSURE FILLING AND TRANSPORTATION

Obayashi Corporation announced on the 19th that it will begin demonstration of construction of a new hydrogen supply network in Namie Town, Fukushima Prefecture. Using Toyota Motor Corporation's high-pressure hydrogen storage technology, a truck transports a high-pressure tank filled with hydrogen at a maximum pressure of 70 megapascals. We will also work on building a new ''hydrogen supply chain integrated management system'' that can handle things like choosing the right containers, creating efficient transportation routes, and managing safe during transportation. This is the first attempt in Japan to fill and transport hydrogen at 70 megapascals.
