How much of this Hydrogen is Gas? IR’s Hydrogen Push on Heritage Routes
The railway ministry announced on 9th January at a plenary session titled "Green Connections: Diaspora's Contribution to Sustainable Development" of the Pravasi Bharatiya Divas convention that Indian Railways (IR) had achieved a milestone and the Hydrogen fuel-run train engine developed by has the maximum horsepower in the world. Stating that only four countries in the world make such train engines, it further added that, "Other countries produce somewhere between 500 to 600 horsepower while the engine produced by IR using indigenous technology has an output of 1,200 horsepower, the highest so far in this category. The first such train is expected to make a trial run in Haryana soon on the Jind-Sonipat route. While the engine manufacturing has been completed, system integration of the same is currently underway”. I had last written on Hydrogen trains in 8th September 21 issue of The Pioneer titled, “Let all green initiatives not be just gas”. https://www.dailypione...
