India launches its first hydrogen-powered train to reduce railway emissions
India has launched its first hydrogen-powered train on an 89-kilometer route between the cities of Jind and Sonipat in Haryana State, with the aim of reducing carbon emissions and decreasing reliance on fossil fuels. The train is equipped with a 1,200-kilowatt drive system, and the project cost approximately $12 million, although it is more expensive than traditional trains. This innovation aims to support India's plan to achieve carbon neutrality by 2070, despite the ongoing reliance on coal for three-quarters of its energy production.
