- Business Content: ABILITY Co., Ltd. is a Japanese hydrogen-energy and electric mobility startup founded in August 2022 by CEO/CTO Tomohiko Shishido. Its mission is “Hydrogen-Powered Global Energy Transformation” — making hydrogen safe and accessible for “anyone, anytime, anywhere” through its proprietary non-hazardous, atmospheric-pressure (normal-pressure) hydrogen cartridges, designed to be used as easily as dry-cell batteries across a wide range of devices. The company’s business spans development, sales, and licensing of atmospheric-pressure hydrogen cartridges; development and sales of utilization devices (ECOA platform); hydrogen production; and hydrogen value chain management (H₂aaS). ABILITY targets two main applications: helping developed nations mitigate global warming, and providing energy access to the 800 million people globally — particularly in Africa — who lack electricity.
