The post covers the following ⚑
β€’ Global Initiatives
β€’ Why H2?
β€’ Why is India focused on H2?
β€’ Sources
β€’ GH2 value chain
β€’ Market Potential in India
β€’ National GH2 Mission
β€’ Building GH2 Ecosystem
β€’ Key Players
(2/n)
🎯 Global initiatives
β€’ USD 10 Tn investment expected till 2050
β€’ 30 countries have announced GH2 plan
β€’ USD 70 Bn Govt. support for Hydrogen
β€’ 20 countries declared ban on sales of ICE vehicles before 2035
(3/n)
Why Hydrogen πŸ€”?
β€’ To fulfill decarbonisation targets - Countries have pledged at the Paris agreement to reduce emissions and impact on climate change. But this would require a large qty. of RE and an alternative where direct electrification is not possible.
(4/n)
(Contd.)
β€’ Complement RE - RE witnessed tremendous growth but requires storage of excessive energy produced which is a challenge
β€’ Falling costs - The cost of hydrogen production from electrolysis has fallen 60% since 2010.
(5/n)
(Contd.)
β€’ Advancements in Tech - Significant improvement in efficiency of electrolyser and fuel cell tech.
🎯 Why is India focused on H2?
β€’ Energy Security - Fluctuations in oil n gas prices during pandemic led to disruption of supply-demand chain
(6/n)
(Contd.)
β€’ Emissions - India contributes 7% to total GHG emissions and plans to reduce it by 45% by 2030
β€’ Balance of trade - India's import dependency is 80% for oil and 54% for natural gas which affects India's fin. position
(7/n)
Sources of H2 πŸ‘‡
β€’ Majority (64%) of H2 currently is produced from natural gas and coal (as seen in pics below)
β€’ When H2 is produced from RE, it's known as Green H2
β€’ The cost of hydrogen depends on production location, tech and volume of production
(8/n)
Green H2 Value Chain ⚑⚑
β€’ Specific energy of GH2 is 120-140 MJ per kg which is 3-4 times high compared to gasoline and diesel
β€’ Gasoline n diesel emit 75-85 g CO2 whereas GH2 emits water as byproduct
Production - Through electrolysis (Alkaline Electrolyser)
(9/n)
(Contd.)
Storage and Transportation
β€’ Storage
- Compressed gas storage
- Liquified H2 storage
- Solid state H2 storage
β€’ Transport
- Pipeline
- Ship
- Road
Challenges
- Safety
- High cost
- Efficiency
(10/n)
Applications ⚑
β€’ Fuel Cell EV
β€’ Aviation
β€’ Fertilizer
β€’ Transport
β€’ Refinery
β€’ Shipping
β€’ Power generation
Other Aspects
β€’ Safety standard
β€’ Water quality
β€’ Equipment and produced GH2 quality

Market Potential IndiaπŸ”₯
β€’ Production capacity to reach 5 MMTPA by 2030 and reduce imports of fossil fuel worth USD 12 Bn
β€’ India's location near equator ensures sunlight and land availability near Thar will optimize solar generation. Also, solar panel costs declining
(12/n)
(Contd.)
β€’ India's long coastline such as southern n western TN, Gujarat etc. have strong and consistent winds, continued adv. in wind tech. will further improve cost efficiency for wind powered GH2 generation
β€’ Grid stability is critical for GH2 production and..
(13/n)
(Contd.) India has achieved One Nation, One Grid, One Frequency. Stability is required by Electrolyser to operate efficiently and prevent damage.
β€’ Govt. policies like waiver of Inter State transmission charges, fast connectivity etc. will help provide cheap RE for GH2
(14/n)
National Green H2 Mission πŸ”₯
β€’ Mission will help achieve Net Zero emissions and become energy independent
β€’ PLI being offered for manufacturing electrolysers and 8 companies awarded contract of 1.5 GW.
β€’ 10 companies awarded contract for producing GH2 (4.1L MT)
(15/n)
(Contd.)
β€’ 3 ports in Gujarat, Orissa and TN respectively have been identified as GH2 hubs
β€’ Initial outlay of INR 19.7k Cr including 17.5k Cr for SIGHT
β€’ > 8L Cr investment till 2030
β€’ Abatement of 50 MMT GHG emissions
(16/n)
Requirements for Building GH2 Ecosystem πŸ”₯
β€’ Minimise cost of RE which should be lower than INR 2/ kWh
β€’ Rapid decline in Electrolyser cost
β€’ Reduce transport n storage cost
β€’ Creating demand in the sectors supported by GH2
β€’ Capitalise on export potential
