Adani’s hydrogen gas cell vehicles for mining operations get rolling

Hydrogen gas cell automobiles match diesel vehicles in vary and cargo capability however emit solely water vapor and heat air, with minimal noise.

The pure sources division of Adani Enterprises, on Saturday flagged off what it claimed to be India’s first hydrogen gas cell truck to advertise cleaner transportation. 

These hydrogen-powered vehicles will step by step change the diesel automobiles used within the firm’s logistics operations.

The venture is a joint effort between Adani Pure Sources (ANR) and Adani New Industries Ltd. (ANIL), each a part of Adani Enterprises. ANR will supply hydrogen cells from ANIL, which can also be concerned in inexperienced hydrogen, wind generators, photo voltaic modules, and battery manufacturing.

Hydrogen, probably the most ample factor, produces no dangerous emissions. Hydrogen gas cell automobiles match diesel vehicles in vary and cargo capability however emit solely water vapor and heat air, with minimal noise.
