IET Opens Centres for Green Hydrogen and EV Research

The Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) has inaugurated two advanced Centres of Excellence focused on green hydrogen production and electric vehicle (EV) technology.
The institute has deployed onsite green hydrogen generation systems powered by renewable wind and solar sources, alongside a battery manufacturing unit for all-terrain electric vehicles. The integrated facility currently generates 4 kilowatts of electricity through these renewable sources, which is directly used for hydrogen production—highlighting the real-world application of clean energy in sustainable fuel systems.
According to IET Director Professor Vineet Kansal, a smart renewable energy-based energy management system has also been implemented alongside the hydrogen facility. This system serves as a research and experimentation platform for smart grids, showcasing integration with multiple renewable energy inputs and advanced hydrogen technology.
Professor Arun Kumar Tiwari, who oversees both centres, explained that the initiative offers a hands-on training platform for students, researchers, and energy professionals. The centre enables a detailed study of hydrogen energy cycles, smart grid systems, and renewable energy integration—all within a controlled laboratory setting.
IET’s electric vehicle laboratory adds to its credentials in clean technology research. The modular platform is designed to support advanced experimentation, covering battery behaviour, propulsion systems, and EV charging infrastructure.
With this dual-facility approach, IET is emerging as a national leader in clean energy education and EV innovation, providing future energy professionals with practical, future-ready training and research opportunities.
