Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India has outlined the country's ambition to become a global hub for green hydrogen production during the Second International Conference on Green Hydrogen. He emphasized the importance of green hydrogen in decarbonizing challenging industries and serving as a storage solution for excess renewable energy. The 'National Green Hydrogen Mission' launched in 2023 aims to drive this transition forward by focusing on innovation, infrastructure, and investment, as well as promoting partnerships and job creation, particularly for the youth. PM Modi highlighted India's progress in clean energy, having met its Paris Agreement commitments well ahead of the 2030 target, with a significant increase in non-fossil fuel and solar energy capacities. He stressed the need for continued focus on new energy solutions and encouraged international cooperation to advance research, innovation, and technology in the green hydrogen sector. During the G20 Summit, India adopted principles on hydrogen, guiding global road maps for green hydrogen development. PM Modi also called upon the scientific community to enhance green hydrogen production efficiency through policy changes and research areas. He concluded by emphasizing the importance of collective efforts and innovative solutions in accelerating the development and deployment of green hydrogen for a sustainable energy future.
