Piyush Goyal Highlights Historic Debut of 1,200 kW Hydrogen Train

Speaking on social media, Minister Goyal said the train’s 1,200 kW fuel‑cell system powers two power cars and eight trailer coaches, delivering a powerful yet emission‑free ride. The indigenous technology underscores the ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ narrative and aligns with the government’s push for sustainable infrastructure.

The integrated railway hydrogen ecosystem at Jind produces hydrogen through electrolysis, compresses it for storage, and refuels the train via a custom‑built system, ensuring seamless operations while adhering to Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation (PESO) norms.
