Tata Motors has launched trials for hydrogen-powered heavy-duty trucks in India to assess their feasibility for long-haul freight transport. The 24-month trial will involve testing 16 hydrogen-powered vehicles with different configurations and payload capacities on major freight routes like Mumbai, Pune, Delhi-NCR, and others. Funded by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy under the National Green Hydrogen Mission, the initiative aims to evaluate the performance of hydrogen vehicles and support the development of necessary infrastructure for hydrogen mobility. The Union Minister of Road Transport & Highways, Nitin Gadkari, highlighted hydrogen as a future fuel with the potential to transform India's transportation sector by reducing emissions and enhancing energy self-reliance. The trial includes various models such as Tata Prima H.55S prime movers and Tata Prima H.28 H2-ICE trucks, offering operational ranges of 300-500 km and incorporating driver-assist safety features. Tata Motors' proactive approach to alternative fuel technologies, including hydrogen fuel cells, demonstrates a commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly transportation solutions.
