PM Modi to launch India’s first hydrogen train in Haryana
CHANDIGARH: India’s first hydrogen-powered train, designed at the Integrated Coach Factory in Chennai, will be launched on Thursday (July 17) from Jind in Haryana by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
This country will join a select group of countries such as Germany, Japan, China and the United States which are exploring the use of hydrogen for cleaner rail transport.
The train has 10 cars, making it one of the largest hydrogen passenger trains in the world, as most hydrogen trains currently operating around the world have only two to four cars and mainly serve short regional routes.
The country’s largest railway hydrogen storage and refueling facility has also been established in Jind.
The project combines advanced propulsion technology with dedicated infrastructure for hydrogen storage, refueling and exploitation, and will demonstrate the feasibility of clean rail transport in India.
Developed as a pilot initiative, it also advances energy efficiency and environmentally friendly transportation.
The indigenous fuel cell-based distributed power rolling stock (DPRS) has a 1,200 kW propulsion system, and the 10-car train will run on the 89 km Jind-Sonepat dedicated section with a maximum speed of 75 kilometers per hour. However, it was designed for a top speed of 110 km/h.
After successful trials on the Jind-Sonepat stretch last year, the Railway Board approved the hydrogen train on May 22.
The train consists of two hydrogen power cars (DPC) and eight trailer cars (TC) which can accommodate around 2,600 passengers. Each DPC houses fuel cells, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries and hydrogen storage cylinders.
The official communication issued by the Railway Board to Northern Railway on July 8 said that hydrogen train No. 74010 would depart from Jind station at 7:40 am during its regular service and arrive at Sonepat at 9:40 am.
The train will cover 12 stations including Jind City, Pandu Pindara, Lalit Khera, Bhambeva, Ishapur Kheri, Butana, Khandrai, Gohana, Rabhra, Lath, Mohana Haryana and Barwasni.
