India's Emergence as a Global Hydrogen Champion
Key Ideas
  • India, under Hardeep Singh Puri's leadership, aims to lead in global hydrogen production and exports by focusing on projects like hydrogen blending and promoting green hydrogen production.
  • The country's energy demand is rapidly increasing, with plans to become a hub for green hydrogen to meet future fuel needs.
  • India is making strides in balancing availability, affordability, and sustainability in energy production, with a strong commitment to energy security and exploration efforts.
  • The GEO India 2024 event is expected to gather experts to discuss new ideas for an energy revolution, showcasing India's potential to lead in the future energy landscape.
India, led by Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, is poised to take the lead in global hydrogen energy production and exports, as highlighted at the 6th South Asian Geoscience Conference and Exhibition held in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh. Puri emphasized India's plans to excel in hydrogen production through initiatives like hydrogen blending, localization of electrolyzer-based technologies, and the promotion of bio-pathways for green hydrogen. With the country's energy demand on the rise, reaching 5.4 million barrels per day and projected to hit 7 million barrels by 2030, India is gearing up to become a significant player in the green hydrogen sector. Despite being the third-largest consumer of crude oil globally, India's exploration sector remains largely untapped, with vast reserves awaiting discovery. The nation is focused on expanding exploration efforts to utilize its substantial crude oil and natural gas reserves efficiently. The upcoming GEO India 2024 event aims to bring together experts to explore innovative ideas for an energy revolution, further solidifying India's commitment to energy security and sustainability.
