RIL, Bharat Benz tie-up for concept hydrogen powered coach

Bharat Benz in collaboration with Reliance Industries showcased India’s first intercity luxury concept coach powered by Hydrogen Fuel Cell technology at the fourth Energy Transitions Working Group meeting under India’s G20 Presidency at Goa.

The luxury intercity coach is powered by a fuel cell system , which is designed and developed by Reliance Industries, using state of the art components from international partners with significant localization, said Nitin Seth, CEO, New Mobility, Reliance Industries in a LinkedIn post on Wednesday.

"The intercity bus can travel approximately 400 km on a single hydrogen fill and can bring long distance travel between cities on clean fuel like Hydrogen. The Bus will undergo extensive trials, validation and safety trials over next 12 months," Seth added in his post.

India launched the National Green Hydrogen mission this January. Mobility plays a critical role in the mission as Indian transport contributes 25-35% of PM 2.5 emissions besides 80% of the crude is imported costing over 100 billion dollars to the exchequer.
