A New Chapter for Green Hydrogen Innovation
In its August 21, 2026 edition, Loksatta covered the inauguration of Venture Center’s Centre of Excellence for Clean Energy and Green Hydrogen Innovation at CSIR-NCL, Pune. The report highlights the Centre’s testing facilities for electrolyzers, fuel cells and batteries, creating new opportunities for startups and innovators working in green hydrogen and clean energy.
The coverage also highlights the Centre’s 200-bar hydrogen compression and dispensing facility and its ability to assess electrolyzer energy efficiency under different testing conditions. By making these capabilities available to new enterprises at affordable rates, the Centre aims to address the high cost of testing and validation and help clean energy technologies move from the laboratory toward the market.
