Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) and Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. (IndianOil) have embarked on a two-year collaboration to assess the viability of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles for mass adoption in India. The Memorandum of Understanding signed between the two companies aims to evaluate the performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of hydrogen technology under Indian driving conditions, supporting the country's clean energy goals. As part of the agreement, Hyundai has provided a NEXO Hydrogen Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) to IndianOil for real-world testing on Indian roads, covering approximately 40,000 kilometers. The trial will focus on assessing the vehicle's longevity, operational reliability, and conducting a Total Cost of Ownership evaluation, including maintenance requirements, to determine the economic and environmental benefits of hydrogen-powered vehicles in the Indian market. The partnership seeks to combine world-class hydrogen fuel cell technology with Indian expertise to unlock the potential of Green Hydrogen as a transformative energy source. Both companies aim to conduct in-depth studies in fuel cell technology, contributing to India's clean energy roadmap and advancing efforts toward a greener mobility ecosystem. The collaboration aligns with the National Green Hydrogen Mission, a government initiative to position India as a global hub for green hydrogen production and export. Hyundai's experience in various propulsion technologies globally, including hydrogen vehicles, and IndianOil's sustainable energy initiatives position them well for this trial. Hyundai is working with the Indian Institute of Technology Madras to establish a 'Hydrogen Innovation Centre' for testing components and ensuring quality in green hydrogen technology. IndianOil, as India's largest integrated oil and gas company, is diversifying its energy initiatives beyond traditional petroleum products to support global sustainability goals. The success of this trial could have a significant impact on India's transportation sector, providing a pathway to reduce oil import bills and address environmental concerns linked to vehicular emissions. This collaborative effort highlights the potential of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in India and underscores the commitment to sustainable and green mobility solutions.
