Tata Motors, India's largest commercial vehicle manufacturer, is making significant strides towards adopting hydrogen powertrains to achieve net-zero emissions. In an investor presentation, the company outlined three alternatives for commercial vehicles: hydrogen combustion through ICE, blended fuel engines with hydrogen and CNG, and hydrogen fuel cell technology. The focus is on heavy trucks and buses serving long haulage and intercity routes, where hydrogen powertrains offer advantages in predictability and vehicle utilization. Tata Motors' joint venture with Cummins Inc has already commenced the production of hydrogen-powered IC engines for medium and heavy commercial vehicles at their Jamshedpur facility. Notably, the company has delivered hydrogen fuel cell-powered buses to Indian Oil Corp Ltd, indicating progress in real-world deployment of hydrogen-based vehicles. The Indian government's National Green Hydrogen Mission further supports this transition, aiming to develop green hydrogen technologies for various vehicle types with a vision for cost competitiveness and significant green hydrogen production capacity targets by 2030. Tata Motors' diversification into alternative fuel technologies, including hydrogen, reflects the evolving fuel landscape in India, emphasizing sustainability and environmental responsibility.
