He highlighted that annual production capacity of 862,000 tonnes of green hydrogen has already been allocated to 19 companies. Five states have notified their green hydrogen policies, while others are working on similar frameworks, covering land allocation, water access, renewable power banking, and hydrogen hub development.

Naik noted that more than 100 standards and protocols have been adopted or are under development to ensure quality and safety. He emphasised that India intends not just to be a producer but a reliable global supplier, with partnerships underway to secure cost competitiveness in a global market projected to exceed 100 million tonnes by 2030.

The minister also indicated that incentives and financing mechanisms such as viability gap funding, green bonds, and multilateral bank support will be used to achieve these goals. The National Green Hydrogen Mission, launched in 2023 with an initial outlay of Rs 197.44 billion, underpins this strategy.

Under the SIGHT scheme’s Component I for electrolyser manufacturing, 3,000 MW of capacity has been awarded to 15 companies. Component II, focused on hydrogen production, has allocated 862,000 tonnes per annum across 19 companies.

Pilot projects have also been launched in steel, transport, and shipping, while 23 R&D projects have been sanctioned, with more than 100 further proposals under evaluation for Centres of Excellence. Three testing facilities are already being established.

To meet the Mission’s goal of producing 5 million tonnes of green hydrogen by 2030, India plans to add 125 GW of renewable energy capacity dedicated to hydrogen production.

Ewa Suwara, Chargé d’Affaires of the EU Delegation to India, said the forthcoming India–EU Hydrogen Task Force would align strategies and foster commercial partnerships. “The real success will come from businesses engaging directly, finding synergies, and building commercially viable partnerships,” she stated.
