New Delhi Sep 30 PTI Almost a year after Delhi started a trial of 50 Hydrogen-enriched CNG buses the government is likely to abandon plans to scale it up with officials saying the reduction in nitrogen oxide NOx levels is debatable and the return and investment is not commensurate Officials also said the question of converting CNG buses to HCNG does not arise when the government has taken a conscious decision to move towards electric vehicles The city government had started a six-month trial of the Hydrogen-enriched Compressed Natural Gas HCNG in a fleet of 50 cluster buses with the inauguration of Indias first semi-commercial HCNG plant and dispensing station at the Rajghat depot here The Delhi transport department had provided Rs 15 crore for the setting up of the plant and conducting a study on the fuel to ascertain its benefits in terms of economy and emissions You have to look at the larger picture The question doesnt remain when we have taken a conscious decision of replacing and augmenting our fleet with electric vehicles a senior government official told PTI He said the study is still under evaluation and there are mixed outcomes While the fuel efficiency has increased to some extent the critical element -- whether there has been a reduction in NOx nitrogen oxides levels -- is debatable the official said A presentation was made before officials of the environment and transport departments There is a divergence of views between the Indian Oil Corporation Limited IOCL and Indraprastha Gas Limited IGL on the matter officials claimed The IOCL which has developed and patented the technology for the production of the fuel had earlier estimated that the cost escalation for shifting to HCNG buses will be about 72 paise per kilometre If at all this model has to be scaled up it entails mixing hydrogen with CNG either at source or here If you do it here its a very capital-intensive project and return and investment is not commensurate the official quoted above said The IGL is not prepared to do the mixing at source because the level to which it is required nowhere else in the world this has been done So it is a challenge he added While inaugurating the Rajghat HCNG plant which can produce four tonnes of fuel per day Transport Minister Kailash Gehlot had said the use of HCNG could be scaled up to other buses and private vehicles in Delhi once the trial is completed successfully According to reports HCNG fuel emits 70 per cent less carbon monoxide reduces total hydrocarbons emissions by around 15 per cent and increases fuel efficiency by 3-4 per cent As it is our buses operate on CNG and are less polluting Making a huge investment into a project converting CNG buses to HCNG of this nature we are not sure of its cost-benefit In any case it is a theoretical debate because we are transitioning to electric now the official said According to the Delhi governments electric vehicle policy 50 per cent of the bus fleet has to be electric by 2025 Delhi has around 6750 state-run buses Of this 3760 are owned by the Delhi Transport Corporation while the rest are cluster buses operated by private entities for the state transport department PTI GVS RHL
