Green Hydrogen policy to support renewable energy capacity addition
‘Green Hydrogen’ policy is expected to support the Renewable Energy (RE) capacity addition targets of the country.
At present, ‘Green Hydrogen’ is produced through electrolysis of water using renewable energy.
On the other hand, ‘Gray Hydrogen’ which is the most commonly used is derived from fossil fuels.
The ‘Green Hydrogen’ segment is becoming popular globally but cost of producing this gas remains high.
Currently, fertiliser and oil gas sectors use hydrogen, however, due to flexible uses and low emissions the gas is being touted as the ultimate solution for clean energy needs of long distance transportation and electricity generation.
