RIL with Ashok Leyland unveils hydrogen-powered technology for heavy duty trucks
By MYBRANDBOOK
Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) and its vehicle partner Ashok Leyland on February 6 unveiled India’s first Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine (H2-ICE) technology solution for heavy duty trucks at the India Energy Week in Bengaluru. The event was flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
With first engines running in early 2022, RIL and Ashok Leyland, along with other technical partners, have been engaged in developing this technology since last year.
Reliance said in a statement that the Hydrogen tech solution will emit near zero emissions, deliver performance on par with conventional diesel trucks and reduce noise and with projected reductions in operating costs thus redefining the future of green mobility.
Green hydrogen is hydrogen generated by renewable energy or from low-carbon power. It is the cleanest form of fuel. A recent Niti Aayog report had noted that green hydrogen is critical to India’s economic development and net-zero ambitions, adding that the technology can help abate 3.6 gigatons of cumulative CO2 emissions by 2050.
Commenting on the launch, N Saravanan, President and Chief Technology Officer, Ashok Leyland, said, “Working with RIL, we have once again demonstrated our technological leadership, and our commitment to the Clean Mobility Mission. Having one of the best R&D teams in the country, we want to continue our path to innovate and leverage new technologies to be a leader in sustainable and environment friendly mobility."
