In India, the Government of India said that the Department of Science and Technology (DST) strengthened India–Netherlands scientific cooperation in clean energy with the launch of the India–Netherlands Hydrogen Fellowship Program, and the hosting of the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the University of Groningen, Netherlands, and 19 Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) to establish an enabling academic cooperation framework in green energy and hydrogen research.
The India–Netherlands Hydrogen Fellowship Program for which the Scheme Guidelines and Call for Proposals (CFP) was released, is a national capacity-building initiative open to eligible Indian doctoral, postdoctoral, and faculty applicants across institutions, according to the government.
The India–Netherlands Hydrogen Fellowship Program aims to strengthen India’s deployment readiness in hydrogen technologies through structured exposure to advanced hydrogen ecosystems in the Netherlands, with emphasis on system integration, safety, techno-economic analysis and life-cycle assessment, the government added.
