Shri Manohar Lal, Union Minister of Power and Housing & Urban Affairs, recently inaugurated NTPC's Green Hydrogen Mobility Project in Leh, featuring a fleet of green hydrogen buses. The project includes a 1.7 MW solar plant, an 80 kg/day capacity green hydrogen filling station, and 5 hydrogen-powered intra-city buses. The initiative aims to enhance energy security and contribute to decarbonisation efforts in India, with a focus on hydrogen technologies for mobility and other applications like blending with PNG and green methanol. The project in Leh operates at an altitude of 3650m MSL, designed to function effectively in low density air and sub-zero temperatures, enabling efficient hydrogen filling at 350 bar pressure. By mitigating around 350 MT/year of carbon emissions and adding 230 MT/year of pure oxygen to the atmosphere, the project aligns with sustainability goals equivalent to planting 13000 trees annually. The Ladakh region's potential for green hydrogen mobility is highlighted due to abundant solar power resources and the suitability of green hydrogen production in such environmental conditions. NTPC plans to expand its hydrogen mobility projects nationwide and scale up renewable energy capacities, with the establishment of a hydrogen hub in Andhra Pradesh, reinforcing the commitment towards a sustainable energy transition.
