India has launched its first hydrogen-powered train designed and built in the country as part of efforts to modernise its rail network and reduce carbon emissions. Multiple outlets describe the launch as a step toward expanding cleaner energy use on Indian Railways, placing the project among a small number of countries testing hydrogen technology for rail transport. The Free Malaysia Today report adds operational details, saying the 10-coach train runs on an 89-kilometre route between Jind and Sonipat and uses a 1,200-kilowatt hydrogen fuel cell propulsion system. Other coverage focuses more generally on the initiative’s role in decarbonising rail and advancing domestic manufacturing of the technology, without adding further specifications. Across sources, the central points are that the train is hydrogen-powered, it is the first of its kind built in India, and it is intended to support wider clean-energy goals for railways. The reports present the move as both a technological trial and a component of broader sustainability and modernization plans within India’s rail system.
