h2e Power to develop India’s first hydrogen 3-wheeler

Mumbai: Pune-based h2e Power Systems, part of the Poonawalla Group, is developing India’s first totally integrated hydrogen fuel cell three-wheeler using PEM (proton-exchange membrane) fuel cell and innovative hydrogen cylinders, the company said on Friday.

These three-wheelers are being developed in collaboration with Canada-based Hydrogen in Motion under an Indo-Canadian program funded by Gita, a public-private partnership between Technology Development Board, Department of Science & Technology, and CII.

This innovative solution will bring a zero-emission public transport vehicle, which would be competitive on costs with other technologies, the company said.

Sidharth R Mayur, founder, and managing director, h2e Power Systems said, “We are already producing Green Hydrogen from our Electrolysers and now developing a 3-Wheeler concept for inter-city public and goods transport using Green Hydrogen.”
