Both think fuel cells are needed in such vehicle to further reduce CO2 emissions.
Uses would include disaster areas without power and entertainment venues such as outdoor concerts.
Current generation power supply vehicles mostly use diesel engines. The fuel cell power supply vehicles supply up to 72 hours of continuous power and also provide water for showers and other uses as a by-product of the power generation.
The vehicle is based on Toyota's Dyna light-duty truck equipped with the Mirai power source. Power supply equipment is from Denyo. The vehicle carries about 65 kilograms of hydrogen (in 27 tanks) for traveling long distances and generating power for long periods of time.
