India has successfully tested its first green hydrogen-powered train on the Jind-Sonipat route. The train reached a top speed of 120 kmph during trials. It will run at 75 kmph in regular service. The train uses hydrogen fuel cells to produce electricity and releases only water vapour, making it environment-friendly. It can travel about 250 km on one refill. The project is part of Indian Railways' plan to reduce carbon emissions. The hydrogen train is expected to run on routes that are difficult to electrify. Passenger service will begin after final approval.
