ROYAL Dutch Shell will build seven fuelling stations for hydrogen cars in California through a partnership with Toyota Motor Corp, laying down their latest bet on the demise of the internal combustion engine.

The stations will nudge the state closer to its goal of having 100 retail sites by 2024 where hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles can fill up. The California Energy Commission is considering US$16.4 million in grants towards the stations, with Shell and Toyota contributing US$11.4 million.
