Japan car giants to build hydrogen stations

Tokyo : Top Japanese carmakers said they were teaming up to double the amount of hydrogen stations in Japan, as the car-mad country seeks to head off competition from China and Germany. Toyota, Nissan and Honda formed a joint venture with major gas and energy companies, including French industrial gases company Air Liquide, to build 80 hydrogen stations in four years, to add to 101 stations in Japan.
