The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy is supporting research, development, and demonstration projects for the development of vehicles that run on hydrogen fuel. The Council for Scientific and Industrial Research through the National Chemical Laboratory has also undertaken RD&D projects on hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. These technologies are still in the pilot stage of development and cost estimates and timelines for setting up this industry are currently not available. This information was given by Shri R.K Singh, Union Minister for Power and New and Renewable Energy in a written reply to Rajya Sabha today. In summary, research is being done to develop vehicles that run on hydrogen fuel, but it is still in its early stages with no cost estimates or timelines available yet.
Environmental Benefits of Hydrogen Fuel
Hydrogen fuel is a clean and renewable energy source that can help reduce carbon emissions. Unlike fossil fuels, hydrogen fuel does not produce any harmful pollutants when burned. In addition to its environmental benefits, hydrogen fuel can also be used in a variety of applications, from powering vehicles to providing energy for homes and businesses. Moreover, the production of hydrogen fuel is relatively inexpensive compared to other forms of energy. This makes it an attractive option for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint while still enjoying the convenience and comfort of modern living.You might also like this article: AgTech startup investor from Singapore: GIC.
