Recently, Indian Railways successfully tested India’s first hydrogen-powered coach at Integral Coach Factory (ICF), Chennai. This marks a major step in India’s shift towards clean and green transportation. The tested coach is a 1,200 Horse Power (HP) hydrogen train under development. It is part of the Hydrogen for Heritage initiative to run 35 hydrogen-powered trains on heritage and hill routes. Each train will cost ₹80 crore, with ₹70 crore for supporting ground infrastructure per route. Hydrogen fuel offers zero carbon emissions, supporting India’s clean energy transition.
