NEW DELHI, Sept 26 (NNN-PTI) – India’s federal Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas, Hardeep Singh Puri, flagged off India’s first green hydrogen fuel cell bus here yesterday.
“The fuel cell utilises hydrogen and air, to generate electricity to power the bus, and the only by-product from the bus is water, therefore making it possibly the most environmentally friendly mode of transportation, compared to conventional buses that run on diesel and petrol,” Puri said.
The minister said, the buses powered with hydrogen cells take a few minutes to get fully charged.
By the end of the year, another 15 such buses are expected on Delhi National Capital Region roads, he added.– NNN-PTI
