Vyttila Mobility Hub to host hydrogen dispensing station
The public sector Travancore Cochin Chemicals (TCC) is set to become a major supplier of hydrogen, the fuel of the future. The government has constituted a State Hydrogen Mission and announced plans to buy 10 hydrogen-fuel buses, marking a shift from traditional fuel to sustainable alternatives.
It is learnt that the Vyttila Mobility Hub will host a major hydrogen dispensing station. Hydrogen dispensed from the hub will serve both water transport vessels linked to Kochi Metro as well as public transport vehicles.
The TCC, founded in 1951 with registered office and factory at Eloor in Udyogamandal, near Kochi, is a chlor-alkali unit with hydrogen as by-product from the production of caustic soda. Hydrogen from the TCC has been identified as the cheapest to meet the need for hydrogen fuel cell buses in the State.
