In a landmark move towards sustainable transport, Indian Railways has approved the deployment of the country's first indigenous hydrogen fuel cell trainset on the Jind-Sonipat route in Haryana. This 10-car trainset will operate at a maximum speed of 75 km/h, utilizing a 1200 kW hydrogen fuel cell propulsion system, making it a zero-emission alternative to traditional diesel trains. The hydrogen technology generates electricity through a chemical reaction, emitting only water vapour. The Jind-Sonipat section has been chosen as the pilot route, with an indigenous hydrogen storage and refueling facility established at Jind. The Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation (PESO) has granted the necessary licenses for safe hydrogen operations. Safety measures include hydrogen leak and flame detectors, and the trainset will be monitored 24/7 to ensure reliability. This project not only reflects Indian Railways' commitment to innovation and energy efficiency but also aligns with India's broader clean energy goals, joining countries like Germany and Japan in adopting hydrogen-powered rail technology.
