The Government of India launched the National Green Hydrogen Mission to reduce dependence on fossil fuel imports and facilitate the transition to a low-carbon economy. The mission seeks to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors like steel, shipping, and transport through cleaner energy alternatives. By fostering indigenous technology and manufacturing, it supports the vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat in the clean energy space. It utilizes competitive bidding to aggregate demand for green hydrogen and ammonia.
