John Cockerill and IIT Bombay Join Hands for Green Hydrogen Value Chain

John Cockerill Group has formalised a partnership with the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at advancing research in steel decarbonisation technologies, the green hydrogen value chain, and defence product development.

This collaboration integrates IIT Bombay’s academic expertise with John Cockerill’s engineering capabilities to drive innovation in sustainable solutions for the steel industry. The initiative will focus on developing technologies that support carbon reduction in steel production, enhance green hydrogen applications, and contribute to defence advancements.

As part of the agreement, both entities plan to explore the establishment of dedicated Centres of Excellence in the future. These centres will specialize in steel technology, defence products, and the green hydrogen value chain, covering aspects such as production, storage, transportation, and utilization. The partnership aligns with the growing demand for sustainable industrial practices and aims to contribute to India’s clean energy and decarbonisation goals.

NHAI Plans Link Road for Expressway Access

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is evaluating the construction of an 18 km road to connect the Bengaluru-Chennai Expressway, within Karnataka, to the Bengaluru-Kolar Highway (NH 75). This strategic link is aimed at improving connectivity for motorists travelling towards the Andhra Pradesh border, including destinations like Chittoor and Tirupati. Currently, a 68 km section of the expressway — from Hoskote to Bethamangala near Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) — is operational. However, due to the absence of seamless end-to-end connectivity, users are forced to navigate through narr..
