New Delhi: Green hydrogen will be crucial for India’s economic development, energy security and achieving decarbonisation of harder to abate sectors, said the Economic Survey 2022-23. The survey tabled in the Parliament on Tuesday stated that from the emerging global momentum on green hydrogen, India can situate this decarbonisation opportunity not just within the context of a low-carbon economy but also as an enabler of energy security and economic development for the nation.
‘Green hydrogen will be crucial for achieving decarbonisation’
Green hydrogen will be crucial for achieving decarbonisation of harder-to-abate sectors such as fertilisers, refining, methanol, maritime shipping, iron & steel and long-haul transport, the survey said. Further, the survey said that green hydrogen is also an important element of India’s Long Term Low Emissions Development Strategy (LT-LEDS).
With a vision to make India an energy-independent nation, and to de-carbonise critical sectors, the government approved the National Green Hydrogen Mission on January 4, 2023 with an initial outlay of Rs 19,744 crore. The mission will facilitate demand creation, production, utilisation and export of green hydrogen and mobilisation of over rupees eight lakh crore of investments by 2030.
As per the survey, the energy transition plan is complemented by numerous policies intended to improve the ecosystem to deploy promising technological innovations like green hydrogen. The National Hydrogen Mission and Green Hydrogen Policy have been introduced to enable India to be energy independent by 2047.
