Hydrogen, previously used as industrial gas, is expected to be used as a new energy resource. Hydrogen has low energy density per unit volume, so transporting and storing large amount of hydrogen gas is necessary. To improve efficiency of transportation and storage of hydrogen, Iwatani promotes a liquid hydrogen supplying system. Furthermore, we are working on a development of a cryo-pump system as the next generation of hydrogen refueling station. Iwatani has established the Research and Development Center in Amagasaki-city of Hyogo prefecture on April, 2013. This institute possesses a liquid hydrogen laboratory, which enables tests and evaluations of liquid hydrogen utilizations.
