NTPC Limited is pioneering sustainable innovation with its hydrogen buses, powered by green hydrogen and solar energy, at the Mahakumbh. Collaborating with the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), these eco-friendly buses are ferrying pilgrims, marking a significant milestone in reducing emissions and contributing to India’s sustainable development goals. These robust buses offer a 300-kilometre range on a single hydrogen refill, can withstand sub-zero temperatures and thin air at high altitudes, and are projected to reduce carbon emissions by 350 metric tons annually. The hydrogen station, powered by a 1.7 MW solar plant, produces up to 80 kg of hydrogen daily, equivalent to planting 13,000 trees, making it a vital step in India’s journey toward achieving its sustainable development goals.
