Tokyo Metropolitan Government will promote hydrogen energy during the Olympic Games in the athletes’ village. The private sector will build and operate the temporary hydrogen station and the pipeline which are to be completed by March. The station will provide fuel cell vehicles with hydrogen during the Olympic Games. Tokyo will publicize the nation’s first commercial supply of hydrogen in the area planned after the event.

Tokyo government and the group of private companies led by Tokyo Gas concluded the basic agreement on February 2018 and the group completed construction of the pipeline in June. The station has been under construction since October 2019 in the Tokyo-owned land next to the village. The show room is also being built to promote the effective use of hydrogen energy.
