      Speaking at the event, Gadkari said FCEV, powered by hydrogen, is one of the best zero-emission solutions. It is completely environment-friendly with no tailpipe emissions other than water, the road transport and highways minister said. He added that green hydrogen can be generated from renewable energy and abundantly available biomass.

      Toyota Mirai promises to be a greener alternative to battery EVs as hydrogen production results in significantly fewer emissions compared to the production of batteries.
