The Indian government has unveiled a ₹200-crore scheme aimed at implementing pilot projects focusing on the production and utilization of green hydrogen in various decentralized applications such as cooking, heating, off-grid electricity generation, and more. This initiative includes innovative methods like floating solar-based green hydrogen production, biomass-based green hydrogen, and deriving green hydrogen from wastewater. These projects are part of a broader plan to establish a green hydrogen ecosystem in new sectors, facilitating the development of necessary infrastructure like refueling stations and distribution networks. The country has also witnessed a remarkable surge in solar photovoltaic (PV) exports to the US, with exports totaling $2 billion in 2023-24, a substantial increase from the previous year. This growth is attributed to the US shifting away from direct imports from China due to tariffs and sourcing concerns, creating opportunities for Indian companies like Waree, Adani, and Vikram. A report suggests that India could further benefit from the US market due to trade dynamics and tariffs imposed on other Southeast Asian countries. The International Energy Agency's recent report highlights India's dependency on battery imports, despite efforts to expand domestic manufacturing capacity. The projected battery production may meet only a portion of the demand, with imports primarily sourced from countries like China. While India aims to increase local production of battery components by 2035, import reliance is expected to persist. Overall, these developments signify a positive momentum towards sustainable energy practices, including green hydrogen adoption and renewable energy exports, positioning India as a key player in the global clean tech landscape.
