Indian automakers had also showcased the potential and their readiness to adopt green hydrogen in mobility. Till date numerous automakers in India have showcased hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (HFCEVs) and hydrogen internal combustion engine (H2ICE) vehicles.

Green hydrogen as a fuel source is full of potential due to its energy dense nature while also being kinder to the environment with near zero tailpipe emissions. All these elements have contributed to OEMs and policymakers to narrow down on green hydrogen to cater to future clean and green mobility needs.
