Jan 10,2023

A few days after India announced the National Green Hydrogen Mission, minister for petroleum and natural gas, Hardeep Singh Puri, has said the country is bound to emerge as the global hub for the commodity as it transitions to cleaner sources of energy.

“India will emerge as the global hub for green hydrogen. The 5 million metric tonnes (MMT) per annum target that we have set, I am 100 per cent sure that it is very conservative given what the private sector has already done in moving ahead on green hydrogen, both in terms of producing for India and the export market,” the minister said while exclusively interacting with Business Today during a New Year celebration at his New Delhi residence on Monday.
