Toyota fuel cell bus now serving more routes around the Nagoya airport

The FCHV (fuel cell hybrid vehicle) bus that's been shuttling passengers around the Central Japan International Airport near Nagoya will soon be expanding its service area. For one, passengers may soon find themselves riding the bus out to their plane on the tarmac. The bus, a project of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), is fueled up at a demonstration hydrogen fueling station onsite at the airport. Toyota Motor Corporation developed the fuel cell hybrid system for the bus. METI's program is called the Japan hydrogen and fuel cell (JHFC) project, and the group is looking for companies and organizations to operate a fleet of fuel cell vehicles.
