National Green Hydrogen Mission
The Government of India has launched the National Green Hydrogen Mission that seeks to incentivise the commercial production of green hydrogen and make India a net exporter of the energy carrier.
The mission has laid out a target to develop green hydrogen production capacity of at least 5 MMT (Million Metric Tonne) per annum by 2030. This will allow decarbonisation of refineries, city gas-grids, fertilizer, petrochemical, steel, and other hard-to-decarbonise sectors; reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels and feedstock; develop indigenous manufacturing capabilities; create employment opportunities; and design new technologies such as efficient fuel cells.
L&T is committed to supporting the Nation in this mission.
