India has launched pilot projects for hydrogen-fueled buses and trucks under the National Green Hydrogen Mission. This initiative is part of the country's efforts to promote sustainable and zero-emission transportation. In addition to these projects, India is set to unveil its first hydrogen-powered train later this month. The train, manufactured by the Integral Coach Factory in Chennai, is a testament to India's commitment to green energy initiatives in the transportation sector. With an allocation of Rs 28 billion for developing hydrogen fuel cell-based trains, the Ministry of Railways is accelerating the transition to eco-friendly rail transport. The pilot projects for hydrogen-fueled buses and trucks represent a crucial step towards reducing carbon emissions and embracing innovative energy solutions. These projects not only showcase India's dedication to environmental sustainability but also pave the way for a cleaner and greener public transportation system.
