Hyundai Motor India is set to establish a Hydrogen Innovation Centre at an investment of Rs 180 crore at the Thaiyur campus of the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, in Chennai. The Foundation stone for this facility was laid by Chief Minister M K Stalin during the Tamil Nadu Investment Conclave. The initiative, a partnership between Hyundai Motor India Ltd., Guidance Tamil Nadu, and IIT Madras, aims to accelerate the development and adoption of hydrogen technology in India. The facility will focus on electrolyser development for green hydrogen generation, localization of manufacturing and supply chain, and will include a fuel cell test station and pilot demonstrators. The Centre is expected to be operational by 2026. The collaboration highlights Hyundai's commitment to sustainability and alternate fuel mobility, aligning with their goal to strengthen Tamil Nadu as a hub of automotive innovation. This project signifies a significant step towards building a sustainable ecosystem for transitioning to alternate fuels, with a focus on hydrogen mobility.
