Hydrogen-fuel institute planned for Japan

"Japan is to be the site of the world's first hydrogen-fuel research institute. According to the Daily Yomiuri, the Natural Resources and Energy Agency aims to create a hydrogen-fuel research institution at Kyushu University in 2006. Under the plan, 20 international researchers, headed by Professor Yukitaka Murakami, will be drawn together to conduct fundamental research into the area. Professor Murakami is recognised as a leader in the hydrogen fuel research field. In addition to other research areas, the institute will primarily focus on metal fatigue caused by hydrogen."
