Japan’s hydrogen fuel cell industry is set to explode, as the government throws its weight behind plans to bring clean transportation to the country with a comprehensive fuel infrastructure. The Japanese government, which has been pushing for more fuel-efficient cars and trucks since 2009, will soon announce that it wants to build an entire network of hydrogen-powered buses in Japan. This will require the construction of more fuelling stations across the country. Fuel cells consume hydrogen to generate electrical power and are considered very efficient, albeit quite expensive. The Japanese government is committed to supporting affordable energy systems and is also backing the “the research and development” of fuel cell technology.
