India is making significant strides in hydrogen-powered technology by developing a 1,200 HP hydrogen train. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that this initiative will position India among the leaders in this field. The successful testing of the country's first hydrogen-powered Driving Power Car at the Integral Coach Factory in Chennai marked a milestone in this endeavor. Additionally, the Indian Railways has laid out plans to introduce 35 hydrogen trains as part of the 'Hydrogen for Heritage' program. These trains are set to run on various heritage and hill routes with each train costing around ₹80 crore and requiring ₹70 crore for ground infrastructure per route. This move highlights India's commitment to innovation, sustainability, and the adoption of eco-friendly transportation solutions.
