Kyushu University, which receives subsidies from the government for its research, will outline at one of the seminars its achievements on a hydrogen energy project. 

In northern area of Kyushu, where the heavy chemical industry has flourished and as a result a massive amount of hydrogen gas is being produced as a byproduct, hopes are heightened that the area could become a center of the hydrogen energy industry, the organizers said.
