India has announced a significant investment of $25 million to establish hydrogen hubs at Deendayal, Paradip, and V.O. Chidambaranar ports to support green shipping initiatives. These hubs will provide bunkering and refuelling facilities for hydrogen-powered vessels, marking a crucial step in decarbonizing the maritime sector. Additionally, the country is allocating $14 million towards pilot projects under the National Green Hydrogen Mission to convert ships to use green hydrogen or derivatives. The ambitious NGHM, with a $2.4 billion budget, aims to achieve 5 million metric tonnes of green hydrogen production annually by 2030, with investments exceeding $100 billion and creating over 6 lakh jobs. India is also focusing on becoming a hub for green shipbuilding by modernizing shipyards and reopening older dockyards, with a vision to be among the top five shipbuilding nations globally by 2047. Furthermore, the country has seen substantial growth in renewable energy, with a 175% increase in capacity since 2014, totaling over 208 GW. Solar capacity has surged by 33 times in the last decade, solidifying India's position as a key player in the clean energy sector. Minister Pralhad Joshi emphasized India's commitment to innovative technologies and infrastructure investments, positioning the country as a leading force in the global energy transition.
