Today marks a landmark moment as India’s first hydrogen fuel cell buses have started operations in Leh, Ladakh. These five buses, unveiled on June 19, 2025, navigate the world’s highest motorable roads and signal a bright, eco-friendly future for public transport.
This launch shows how innovation and environmental care can drive progress together. The collaboration between NTPC and local authorities highlights strong teamwork and a shared belief in cleaner solutions. It’s inspiring to see such advanced technology adapted to the harsh, high-altitude environment of Ladakh; it proves India’s commitment to reducing pollution and promoting green mobility.
These buses are not just a first; they are a vision for tomorrow’s India. They set a new standard and will guide future projects across the country. As we applaud this achievement, we also count on continued support and expansion from leaders and communities. Together, we are steering toward a greener, brighter journey for every Indian town and city.
