Tokuyama and Toyota have commenced verification tests, using by-product hydrogen, of a stationary fuel cell generator that makes use of the Mirai’s fuel cell system.

德山和丰田已经开始使用副产氢对使用Mirai燃料电池系统的固定式燃料电池发电机进行验证测试。

The fuel cell generator (FC generator) has been set up within the Tokuyama Factory grounds in Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The tests are scheduled to continue until the end of March 2022.

燃料电池发电机（FC发电机）位于山口县山南市德山工厂基地内。测试计划预计将持续到2022年3月。

By using components from the Mirai fuel cell system (FC system), such as the FC stack, power control unit (PCU), and secondary battery, Toyota seeks to produce a high-performance generator at a reasonable price.

通过使用Mirai燃料电池系统（FC系统）的组件，例如燃料电池电堆，电源控制单元（PCU）和二次电池，丰田努力尝试以合理的价格生产高性能的发电机。

Development on the FC generator was carried out jointly by Toyota and Toyota Energy Solutions, Inc.

丰田和丰田能源解决方案公司联合进行了燃料电池发电机的开发。

Toyota said the newly introduced FC generator is based on the FC generator with a rated output of 100 kilowatts that has undergone verification tests since September 2019 at Toyota’s Honsha Plant grounds in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture.

丰田表示，新推出的燃料电池发电机在额定输出100千瓦的燃料电池发电机基础上进行进创新，该发电机于2019年9月在爱知县丰田市的丰田本社工厂现场通过了验证测试。

The rated output has been changed to 50 kilowatts, and other enhancements have been made, such as adjusting the component layout to improve maintenance.

新推出的燃料电池发电机的额定输出已更改为50千瓦，并且调整了组件布局以改善后期运营。

A feature of the new tests is the use of hydrogen generated as a by-product in the manufacture of sodium hydroxide by Tokuyama, using the chloralkali process as fuel for the FC generator.

新测试的一大特点是，在德山公司生产氢氧化钠时，将副产氢用于氯碱工艺，从而将其用作燃料电池的燃料。

Tokuyama will be responsible for the steady supply of by-product hydrogen, and the electricity produced by the FC generator will be supplied to the Tokuyama Factory at a rated output of 50 kilowatts.

德山将负责稳定供应副产氢，燃料电池发电机产生的电力将以50千瓦的额定输出提供给德山工厂为其供能。

Toyota will verify and evaluate aspects including the energy efficiency―the amount of electricity generated per unit of hydrogen―the stability of the generated output, durability, ease of maintenance of the generator, and the impact of salt-air damage from the sea breezes.

丰田汽车将验证和评估能源效率---每单位氢气产生的电量，发电输出的稳定性，耐用性，发电机的维护简便性以及海风盐雾对发电机的影响等方面。

In addition, the tests will be used to estimate the impact on power generation from the use of by-product hydrogen, and the economics of this in comparison with purchasing from an external source.

此外，测试还将用于估算使用副产氢对发电的影响，以及与从外部来源购买氢相比的经济性。

Moving forward, Tokuyama will consider a business model, which contributes to the local community, as one of the leading Japanese comprehensive chemicals manufacturers with the capacity to supply highly pure by-product hydrogen.

展望未来，德山化学将考虑其作为能够提供高纯度副产氢的日本领先的综合化学品制造商之一，为当地社区做出贡献的新商业模式。

In order to expand use of the FC generator, Toyota will consider research and development, and business models for improving the generator’s product appeal, through the expansion of the FC generator output lineup, and by enhancing its energy efficiency and durability, making it more compact, and reducing costs.

为了扩大燃料电池发电机的使用，丰田将通过扩展燃料电池发电机输出阵容，提高其能源效率和耐用性，并使其更加紧凑，进一步研究研发并拓展新的商业模式，以提高该发电机的产品吸引力并降低成本。

Through these tests, Tokuyama and Toyota will further advance efforts aimed at the realisation of a hydrogen society.

通过这些测试，德山和丰田将进一步推进日本实现氢能社会的努力。
