India has introduced a Green Hydrogen certification scheme to regulate the production and export of Green Hydrogen, with agreements already in place to export 4.12 lakh tonnes of derivatives to Japan and Singapore. The National Green Hydrogen Mission, launched in January 2023 with a budget of ₹19,744 crore until FY 2029–30, aims to bolster India's self-reliance in clean energy, support global clean energy transition, decarbonize the economy, reduce reliance on fossil fuel imports, and establish India's leadership in Green Hydrogen technology and markets. Discussions are in progress with states for Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), focusing on resolving issues with renewable energy with the cooperation of the Power Ministry and Central Electricity Regulatory Commission. Additionally, a workshop chaired by the Minister highlighted the importance of MSMEs in driving decentralized renewable energy integration and local employment generation through their reach.
