These customer stories show how new values are being created in various sectors. 3 An Open Ecosystem towards a Hydrogen Society : Hydrogen Station Data Management Service [Toyota Motor Corporation Case Study] Human Centric Innovation The introduction of fuel cell vehicles and hydrogen stations is an exciting development with the potential to make our environment cleaner and greener. To help make this technology widely available, Fujitsu has started a hydrogen station data management service. Toyota introduced this service to provide the information of the location and availability of hydrogen stations across Japan. It is a platform to enable an open ecosystem to form, which other car manufacturers and energy companies can join. now become the focus of attention. Using hydrogen Introducing new fuel cell vehicles for a greener as fuel, FCVs open up the possibility of zero carbon society dioxide emissions in the future. However, in order for Our daily lives, business and society rely on the FCVs to be widely adopted, the hydrogen supply mass consumption of energy and natural resources, infrastructure - hydrogen fueling stations - has yet to but as we know this can also be detrimental for the be fully established. planet. Many measures are being taken to protect Even though Japan is ahead of other countries in the environment and fuel cell vehicles (FCV) have developing this infrastructure, hydrogen stations are still relatively uncommon compared to gas stations. Furthermore, it is diffi cult for drivers to know where to fi nd them, as information is not widely available. To supplement the limited availability of fi xed stations, mobile fuelling stations have been deployed, but these are even harder for drivers to locate. To make FCVs convenient enough to use, therefore requires drivers to have a simple and easy way to fi nd out fuel stops. The solution to these issues requires a new collaborative effort across the automotive and energy industries. 4 Transcending industry boundaries and conventional wisdom There are many issues to be overcome in order for FCVs to be widely adopted. First and foremost, drivers of FCVs should feel comfortable while driving by knowing that they can fuel hydrogen when needed. To overcome issues and help FCVs gain acceptance, Fujitsu has recently launched a hydrogen station data management service based on ‘FUJITSU Intelligent Society Solution SPATIOWL’. SPATIOWL is a Fujitsu cloud service for location information management, providing insights from big amount of location safety, security, comfort and convenience. information. It is equipped with multiple functional The Hydrogen Station Data Management Service components including telematics*, probe traffic also has a function for the hydrogen operators. They information systems, speech synthesis and personal can register their hydrogen stations by tapping the protections. SPATIOWL can be used as an open map on a Web browser. SPATIOWL automatically platform as a service (Paas). This platform allows calculates the longitude and the latitude on the map, enterprises to rapidly develop their unique location and registers a station, which instantly appears on information services. An open platform makes it the Hydrogen Station List and Pocket Mirai. This easier for both the location service providers and feature allows hydrogen station operators to easily users of the information to participate in the ecosys- register and update hydrogen station information tem.
