Tata Steel partners with British High Commission to fund R&D Projects

Tata Steel, in collaboration with the British High Commission in India, has announced its commitment to funding research and development (R&D) projects in the low carbon hydrogen sector. This partnership is part of the 'UK-India Hydrogen Partnership Sprint Series' initiative. Tata Steel will provide around Rs 8.3 million in funding for two innovative projects focused on low carbon hydrogen.

In a statement, Tata Steel mentioned that the initiative is open to participants from both India and the UK. The company outlined two specific challenges that proposals bidding for the grant should address. The first challenge is the development and implementation of hydrogen technologies to promote sustainability in the industrial sector. The second challenge involves finding solutions for hydrogen storage and purification.

Tata Steel recognises the urgent need for the steel industry to decarbonise in a manner that is both technologically advanced and economically viable. The current carbon footprint of the steel sector is unsustainable, and clean hydrogen, while a promising solution, faces various challenges in terms of its practical implementation and operation.

Creativity is for Humans, Productivity is for Robots!

On most construction sites, the rhythm of progress is measured by the clang of steel, the hum of machinery and the sweat of thousands. But increasingly, new sounds are entering the mix: the quiet efficiency of algorithms, the hum of drones overhead, and the precision of robotic arms at work. Behind the concrete and cables, an invisible force is taking hold: data. It is turning blueprints into living simulations, managing fleets of machines, and helping engineers make decisions before a single brick is laid. This is not the construction of tomorrow; it is the architecture of today – built on ..
