India's Green Ammonia Production Initiative Accelerates National Hydrogen Mission
Key Ideas
  • The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) launches a request for selection (RfS) to choose green ammonia producers under the National Green Hydrogen Mission.
  • This initiative aims to create demand for green hydrogen and its derivatives by facilitating the production and supply of 539,000 tonnes per annum of green ammonia for fertilizer companies.
  • The process involves cost-based competitive bidding through e-bidding and e-reverse auction, with SECI appointed as the implementing agency and the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy overseeing the allocation of production and manufacturing capacities.
  • India's National Green Hydrogen Mission, with a substantial investment up to 2030, seeks to enhance self-reliance through clean energy, reduce reliance on fossil fuel imports, and boost industry competitiveness in the green hydrogen sector.
The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has initiated a request for selection (RfS) to identify green ammonia producers under India's National Green Hydrogen Mission. This move is a significant step towards stimulating the demand for green hydrogen and its by-products in the country. The RfS is focused on enabling the production and supply of 539,000 tonnes per annum of green ammonia for fertilizer companies. The selection process involves cost-based competitive bidding through e-bidding and e-reverse auction mechanisms. The Union Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has already allocated green hydrogen production and electrolyzer manufacturing capacities under the SIGHT scheme, with SECI serving as the implementing agency. With the launch of the National Green Hydrogen Mission in 2023, India aims to achieve self-reliance through clean energy, reduce dependency on fossil fuel imports, and empower the industry to excel in technological and market aspects within the green hydrogen domain.
