India may soon export green hydrogen

India is in talks with the governments of other countries to export green hydrogen made in the South Asian nation, Reuters quoted an official of its foreign ministry as saying on Thursday. “We are in a position to make green hydrogen as our main source of energy in the future,” Prabhat Kumar, an additional secretary of the external affairs ministry, said at an industry event.

Green hydrogen is made by breaking down water using electricity from renewable sources, which is considered crucial to decarbonize hard-to-abate heavy industries.
