The Indian government has initiated the National Green Hydrogen Mission, launching five pilot projects to deploy hydrogen fuel-based vehicles for trial runs. A total of 37 hydrogen-fueled vehicles, including buses and trucks, will be tested on 10 different routes across the country. These projects involve major companies such as TATA Motors, Reliance Industries, and NTPC, indicating a significant step towards creating commercially viable hydrogen technology for the transport sector. The plan includes 9 hydrogen refuelling stations and a financial support of around Rs 208 crore from the Centre. The projects are expected to be completed within 18-24 months. The National Green Hydrogen Mission, with an allocated budget up to FY2029-30, aims to achieve self-reliance in clean energy, reduce carbon emissions, lower dependence on fossil fuel imports, and position India as a leader in green hydrogen technology and the global Clean Energy Transition.
