NTPC REL, a 100% subsidiary of NTPC, signed a MoU with Union Territory of Ladakh, to setup India’s first green Hydrogen Mobility project in the region. The MoU will enable NTPC to help Ladakh develop a carbon-free economy based on renewable sources and green hydrogen. The signing was also marked with the inauguration of NTPC’s first solar installations in Leh in form of solar trees and a solar carport.

NTPC has planned to ply 5 hydrogen buses, to start with, in the region and the company will be setting up a solar plant and a green hydrogen generation unit in Leh towards this end. This will put Leh as the first city in the country to implement a green hydrogen-based mobility project. This would be zero-emission mobility in the true sense.
