Adani Enterprises, a leading company of the Adani Group, initiated the launch of India's first hydrogen fuel cell truck in Raipur, Chhattisgarh. This move aims to promote cleaner transportation and sustainability by gradually replacing diesel vehicles in logistics operations. The hydrogen-powered trucks, equipped with 'smart technology' and three hydrogen tanks, have the capability to transport up to 40 tonnes of cargo across a 200-kilometer range. Chhattisgarh's Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai flagged off the first truck, which will transport coal from the Gare Pelma III Block to the state's power plant. The project signifies the state's dedication to sustainable practices and reducing the carbon footprint. Adani Group, in collaboration with energy and auto manufacturers, is spearheading the development of these innovative trucks. The initiative not only aims to enhance transportation efficiency but also to pioneer sustainable mining practices. By transitioning to cleaner fuels like hydrogen, the project seeks to significantly reduce emissions, noise pollution, and India's reliance on crude oil imports. The introduction of hydrogen fuel cell trucks represents a positive step towards a more sustainable and environmentally conscious future in India's transportation and mining sectors.
