The Union Cabinet has approved a National Green Hydrogen mission that aims to make India a \u2018global hub\u2019 for using, producing and exporting green hydrogen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why was the National<\/b> Green Hydrogen mission launched?<\/b><\/h5>\n

Green hydrogen currently accounts for less than 1% of global hydrogen production due to it being expensive to produce.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A kilogram of black hydrogen costs $0.9-1.5 to produce while grey hydrogen costs $1.7-2.3 and blue hydrogen can cost anywhere from $1.3-3.6.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, green hydrogen costs $3.5-5.5 per kg, according to a 2020 analysis by the Council for Energy, Environment and Water.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mission aims to reduce this cost by incentivising the commercial production of green hydrogen and making India a net exporter of fuel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the key features of the National Green Hydrogen mission?<\/b><\/h5>\n

What are the challenges ahead?<\/b><\/h5>\n

Green hydrogen development is still in the nascent stages globally.<\/span><\/p>\n

India can take the lead in being a major producer of Green Hydrogen. But there are certain challenges ahead such as:<\/span><\/p>\n

Firstly,<\/strong> India doesn\u2019t have the necessary infrastructure yet to execute all these intermediary steps.<\/span><\/p>\n

Secondly,<\/strong> it needs to announce incentives to convince enough users of industrial hydrogen to adopt green hydrogen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thirdly,<\/strong> it needs to develop supply chains in the form of pipelines, tankers, intermediate storage and last-leg distribution networks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly,<\/strong> it also needs to put in place an effective skill development programme to ensure that lakhs of workers can be suitably trained to adapt to a viable green hydrogen economy.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
