Under the SIGHT Programme, MNRE has already allocated 412,000 MT/annum of Green Hydrogen production capacity and 1.5 GW/ annum of electrolyzer manufacturing capacity.

National Green Hydrogen Mission

The National Green Hydrogen Mission was launched on 4th January 2023 with an outlay of Rs. 197.44 billion up to FY 2029-30. It will contribute to India?s goal to become Aatmanirbhar (self-reliant) through clean energy and serve as an inspiration for the global clean energy transition. The Mission will lead to significant decarbonization of the economy, reduced dependence on fossil fuel imports, and enable India to assume technology and market leadership in Green Hydrogen.
