The #Indian Government's recent initiative to invest Rs. 496 crore in pilot projects for green #hydrogen in #transportation is a major move towards sustainability. The scheme, led by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), aims to test the feasibility and safety of using hydrogen as a fuel for vehicles and refuelling stations. Goals of the #MNRE Scheme: - Test if green hydrogen can work well in vehicles. - See if it's cost-effective to use green hydrogen-powered vehicles. - Show that it's safe to use hydrogen for vehicles and refuelling stations. What Indian Companies are Doing?: Big vehicle makers like Tata Motors, Volvo Eicher, and Ashok Leyland are working hard to make trucks and buses that run on hydrogen. Energy companies in India are also trying to make more green hydrogen to bring down the cost and compete with regular fuels. How India Benefits: - Less pollution and better for the #environment. - Helps meet goals for fighting climate change. - Reduces the need to buy expensive fossil fuels. - Chance to become a world leader in green hydrogen. Types of Hydrogen: - Grey Hydrogen: Made from natural gas, not great for the environment. - Blue Hydrogen: Also made from fossil fuels, but the emissions are captured and stored. - Green Hydrogen: Made from renewable sources like wind or solar power, only produces water when used. Hydrogen-Powered Vehicles: - Hydrogen ICE Vehicles: These cars burn hydrogen without making #pollution. - Hydrogen FCEVs: These cars use a special cell to turn hydrogen into electricity, and they're lighter than cars with electric batteries. Challenges Ahead: - Making hydrogen is still expensive. - It's hard to store and move hydrogen around. - There aren't enough places to fill up hydrogen-powered vehicles. - Hydrogen can be dangerous because it's flammable. - Electric cars with better batteries are also getting more popular, which could be tough competition. #GreenHydrogen #SustainableTransport #RenewableEnergy #ClimateAction #HydrogenFuelCell #GreenTech #CleanEnergy #sustainability

#Greenhydrogen has a critical role to play in driving India’s #netzero transition and securing its #energy needs. For India to reach its goal to become a global leader in green hydrogen production, there are multiple priorities which must be met. Supported by in-depth analysis of costs and demand drivers of green hydrogen along with interviews with #industry players and government agencies, we (World Economic Forum and Bain & Company) propose a roadmap defined by 5 identified #goals across the #demand and #supply eco-systems to accelerate development of green hydrogen #ecosystem in India. #SupplySide Interventions: 1. Reduce green hydrogen production costs to less than $2/kg – by enabling reduction of power (RE-RTC) required for production of green hydrogen and rapidly bringing down #electrolyser costs through #investments in R&D and providing #manufacturing subsidies/ incentives. 2. Minimize #costs related to conversion, storage and #transport of green hydrogen and its derivatives – by optimizing conversion costs through R&D, reduction of storage costs and formation of industrial clusters and policies to support the same to tackle transportation concerns. #Demandside Interventions: 3. Create #demand for green hydrogen to boost developments – by providing direct subsidies and CAPEX support to make demand side mandates and migration to green hydrogen a more attractive proposition for industries along with focus on greening transport and energy. 4. Capitalize on India’s #export potential – by developing India as a green hydrogen export hub capitalizing on lower cost of production of GH in India through formation of globally recognized standards for exports, improving port infrastructure and convening bilateral agreements. 5. Divert #investments away from #carbon-intensive alternatives and focus into greener pathways – by reallocating coal subsidies, levying additional carbon pricing and emission penalties – which will be used towards creation of green hydrogen development fund. Green hydrogen is still in an emerging phase. As with the evolution of any new technology, measures that have a shorter time-to-impact and higher ease of implementation could have the most profound near-term effects in steering India’s green hydrogen ecosystem towards maturity. Glad to have been a part of the study report. Congratulations to the team! Marina Colombo Rakind Gupta Dr. Dhairya S. #energytransition
