TN to set up green hydrogen hub

Tamil Nadu is in the process of developing a green hydrogen hub, Industries Minister T R B Rajaa said. He was addressing the India EV Conclave event “Electrifying Tomorrow: Navigating the EV Transition” was the theme of the event.

Rajaa said 50% of installed energy capacity in the state was green and added that the government was targeting to increase it to 75%.

Leading electric vehicle players such as Ola, TVS Motor and Ather in Krishnagiri, Ampere Vehicles in Ranipet, BYD India in Kancheepuram, Stellantis in Thiruvallur and E-Royce Motors in Coimbatore contributed to large-scale production of such vehicles in Tamil Nadu.

Rajaa indicated that the electric vehicle sector would get tremendous visibility during the forthcoming Tamil Nadu Global Investors Meet to be held in January next year.
