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. Japan currently has 800,000 fuel cell vehicles on its roads, but that number is expected to reach 800,000 by the coming years and 800,000 by 2030 . This will require the construction of more fuelling stations across the country. Currently, fuel cells are expensive because of their use of platinum. The Japanese government is committed to supporting affordable energy systems and is also backing the “the research and development” of fuel cell technology.
