The Indian government is focusing on developing public-private partnership projects worth ₹50,000 crore for major state-owned ports within the next five years. This initiative aims to enhance the readiness of ports and alleviate congestion issues that have been contributing to the high logistics costs in India. Additionally, plans are in place to execute over 40 projects amounting to ₹25,000 crore for port modernization to further address the cost challenges in logistics. In alignment with the National Hydrogen Mission, the government is also planning the construction of three hydrogen hubs in Kandla, Tuticorin, and Paradip. These hubs are expected to kick off construction activities in the next three years through PPP initiatives. These strategic plans not only highlight a significant investment in port infrastructure but also underscore the country's commitment to embracing hydrogen technology for sustainable development and growth in the coming years.
