Amara Raja Infra has completed India's first green hydrogen (GH2) fuelling station in Leh, Ladakh, marking a significant milestone in the country's green mobility efforts. The station, inaugurated by Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, can produce 80 kilograms of green hydrogen daily, supporting the deployment of five hydrogen fuel cell buses in Leh. Despite facing extreme environmental challenges in its construction, the project was successfully completed in just two years, showcasing India's commitment to sustainable transportation. The facility at an altitude of 3,400 meters above sea level serves as a model for green hydrogen infrastructure, aligning with the national hydrogen energy mission. By demonstrating the viability of green hydrogen technologies, the project encourages further investments in clean energy solutions, boosting India's leadership in the global hydrogen economy. The success of the Leh station not only sets the stage for future hydrogen fuelling stations across India but also paves the way for a cleaner, greener future for the country.
