India's Green Hydrogen Initiative: Establishing World-Class Centres of Excellence
Key Ideas
  • The Government of India calls for proposals to set up Centres of Excellence for Green Hydrogen under the National Green Hydrogen Mission to drive innovation and sustainability.
  • These CoEs will focus on research, skill development, and collaboration among stakeholders to advance Green Hydrogen production, storage, and utilization technologies.
  • India aims to achieve energy independence, decarbonize the economy, reduce fossil fuel imports, and lead in Green Hydrogen technology and market through this initiative.
  • With Rs. 100 crores allocated for setting up these Centres, India's Green Hydrogen Mission is a strategic step towards a low-carbon economy and clean energy transition.
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy in India has initiated the establishment of Centres of Excellence (CoE) under the National Green Hydrogen Mission to drive integrated research across the Green Hydrogen value chain. The objective is to create leading CoEs that will promote innovation, sustainability, and energy independence in the long term. These centers will play a crucial role in advancing Green Hydrogen technologies, including production, storage, and utilization. By fostering collaboration among various stakeholders, the CoEs will enhance process efficiencies, develop new products, and promote the growth of the Green Hydrogen ecosystem in India. The Government of India has released guidelines for implementing the R&D scheme under the National Green Hydrogen Mission and is inviting proposals for partnerships from Public and Private entities, Research Institutions, and Universities. With an allotted budget of Rs. 100 crores, the Green Hydrogen Mission, launched in January 2023, aims to contribute to India's self-reliance in clean energy, drive decarbonization, reduce dependence on fossil fuel imports, and position India as a leader in Green Hydrogen technology and market. This strategic initiative aligns with the global shift towards clean energy and marks a significant step towards achieving a low-carbon economy.
