Several pilot projects have been implemented in the country for the production of green hydrogen. A pilot plant of capacity 10 kg per day is established at Jorhat, Assam by Oil India Ltd. Another green hydrogen production plant with a capacity of 2 kg per day has been set up at Kawas, Gujarat by NTPC Ltd.
In Bikaner, Rajasthan, a green ammonia plant that produces Green Hydrogen at a rate of 500 Nm3/hr - about 175 tonnes per annum is developed by ACME. Recently, a company has set up a manufacturing facility for Polymer Electrolyte Membrane electrolysers in Bengaluru. However, the government has not provided any subsidy for these pilot projects, informs Power and Renewable Energy Minister R.K. Singh.
A 5 Nm3/h (normal cubic meter per hour) Green Hydrogen production plant based on solar energy and electrolysis has been established at Gurugram, Haryana and a 6 kg per hour Green Hydrogen production plant based on biomass gasification has been established at IISc Bangalore, Karnataka under Research and Development projects supported by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy.
The total hydrogen production capacity from renewable sources is approximately 235.4 tonnes/annum. Under the National Green Hydrogen Mission, the Green Hydrogen production capacity of 5 Million Metric Tonne Per Annum (MMTPA) has been targeted by 2030.
Earlier this year, the Union Cabinet approved the National Green Hydrogen Mission which is expected to support the production of green hydrogen in India.
Various schemes are being implemented for the production of ethanol and biogas in the country which include Ethanol Blending Programme, Programme on Energy from Urban, Industrial, Agricultural Waste, National Bioenergy Programme and Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation (SATAT) Programme.
