The electricity powering the system will be generated by wind and solar power, and the hydrogen will be stored and used as a fuel source for hybrid commercial vehicles powered by fuel cells and diesel engines.
The Levenmouth Community Energy Project in Fife, Scotland, will run from 2015 to 2020 in a redevelopment area of the Methil Docks in Methil, Fife, Scotland's third-largest council area. Toshiba will join eight other organizations in the research, including Bright Green Hydrogen Ltd., a Fife-based nonprofit organization that promotes a hydrogen future, and Fife Council, the Fife local authority.
Scotland is promoting the use of wind and other renewable energy sources with a goal of generating the equivalent to 100 percent of electricity demand from renewable energy by 2020.
