India Accelerates Towards a Green Hydrogen Future
India Accelerates Towards a Green Hydrogen Future India is steadily building its position as a global leader in clean energy with the commissioning of 8,000 TPA Green Hydrogen capacity (till Feb 2026) under the National Green Hydrogen Mission (NGHM) . Why this matters for Sustainability & ESG? Decarbonisation Catalyst Green hydrogen can significantly reduce emissions in hard-to-abate sectors like refining, steel, and fertilizers—key contributors to India’s carbon footprint. Long-term Climate Impact India aims to achieve 5 Million Metric Tonnes per annum capacity by 2030 , marking a massive shift towards low-carbon energy systems. Economic & ESG Value Creation Competitive pricing discovered: ~₹387–₹397/kg Renewable energy accounts for 50–70% of production cost , strengthening the case for solar & wind integration Increasing fund utilisation reflects strong policy execution and momentum Policy Momentum (Funds Utilised): FY 23–24: ₹0.11 Cr FY 24–25: ₹46.26 Cr FY 25–26: ₹203.7...
