  • India’s first Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine (H2-ICE) powered Heavy Duty truck was unveiled recently.
  • The Ashok Leyland’s new H2-ICE heavy-duty truck range is powered by Hydrogen fuel and is based on its conventional diesel-based combustion engine.
  • It was developed by Reliance in partnership with Ashok Leyland.
  • This would help quicker migration to cleaner energy sources at a relatively lower cost delta.
  • The H2-ICE produces nitrogen oxides only if atmospheric hydrogen is used.
  • India includes nitrogen oxides in its pollutant list.
  • There are no sulphur oxides, carbon monoxide, particulate matter, or Hydro carbons emissions in H2-ICE.
