Rehlko and Toyota Motor North America have announced a groundbreaking supplier agreement at the Advanced Clean Transportation Expo. Toyota will provide hydrogen-powered fuel cell modules to Rehlko for stationary power generator products.

The collaboration has already yielded success with a 100kW hydrogen fuel cell system at Klickitat Valley Health hospital. Building on this, they've developed a commercial 1MW system for larger-scale applications. The technology can power facilities like data centers and warehouses while producing only water and air as emissions.

Toyota brings over 30 years of hydrogen fuel cell expertise, including experience from the Toyota Mirai development. The company's fuel cell technology has been tested in extreme conditions from -20° Fahrenheit to 150° in Death Valley. Toyota maintains its NA H2HQ in Southern California and fuel cell kit assembly in Georgetown, Kentucky.

Toyota Motor North America has launched a new Toyota Hydrogen Solutions (THS) website focused on commercial hydrogen-powered products and solutions. The announcement was made at the Advanced Clean Transportation Expo, highlighting Toyota's commitment to hydrogen fuel cell technology.

Key highlights:

• The website serves as a business hub offering product information, case studies, and contact details for hydrogen-powered solutions
• Applications include stationary power generation, Class 8 semi-truck powertrains, and modular commercial systems
• Toyota has sold over 2,700 commercial fuel cell units to more than 100 customers globally
• The company plans to assemble fuel cell module kits in Georgetown, Kentucky

The initiative builds on Toyota's 30-year development of hydrogen fuel cell technologies in the US, starting with the 2015 Mirai sedan. The technology combines hydrogen with oxygen to create electricity, offering a cleaner power alternative that only emits water vapor. Toyota's Hydrogen Headquarters in Gardena, California, has tested fuel cells in extreme conditions from -20° Fahrenheit in Canada to 150° in Death Valley.

Toyota announced major hydrogen initiatives at the 2025 Advanced Clean Transportation Expo in Anaheim. The company plans to introduce hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric Class 8 trucks to its North American Parts Center California fleet, replacing diesel-powered tractor trailers.

Key announcements include:

• A new hydrogen fueling station at the Parts Center campus
• Partnership with Air Liquide and Iwatani for hydrogen infrastructure
• North American debut of the Gen 3 FC system, which is 20% more efficient and powerful than current systems

The Gen 3 FC system, expected to arrive after 2027, can run over 600,000 miles without major service. Toyota's trucks will operate routes from Long Beach Port to Ontario, California, and San Diego. The company is also exploring hydrogen production through electrolysis and methane byproducts from waste sources.

This initiative supports Toyota's 2050 Challenge to reduce supply chain carbon emissions, featuring high-flow fueling systems comparable to diesel fueling times.
