February 5, 2026 |

In India, BioEnergy Times reported that the Government of India is implementing the National Green Hydrogen Mission (NGHM), with an objective to make India a global hub of production, usage and export of green hydrogen and its derivatives, according to Union Minister of State for New and Renewable Energy Shripad Naik.

India’s green hydrogen production capacity is likely to reach 5 million metric tons per annum by 2030.  The report also noted that significant steps have been taken under NGHM for reducing the cost of green hydrogen.

Under the incentive scheme for Electrolyser Manufacturing, 15 companies have been awarded a total manufacturing capacity of 3,000 MW per annum.

Also, under the incentive scheme for procurement of Green Hydrogen for refineries, two companies have been awarded a total capacity of 20,000 tons per annum.
