IH2A is the first coalition of global energy majors focused on commercializing hydrogen technologies and systems to build net-zero carbon pathways in India.
Thanks to Harvard's @BelferCenter for acknowledging IH2A as a successful cooperative model between industry, academia & govt, accelerating the transition to a low-carbon economy in its 'India - The New Global #GreenHydrogen Powerhouse?' report.

Hydrogen isn't a "climate solution". It's strategic, cutting edge. China has adopted hydrogen as a strategic tech, the replacement for batteries. Europe has bottomed out after the green-hydrogen post-hype crash, though EU policies are too strict and less pragmatic.
CBAM is an entry ticket to the EU market, much more than the "entry barrier" people see it as. Jorgo Chatzimarkakis, CEO of Hydrogen Europe, and former EU MP, at #ICGH25@MNREindia
India’s #GreenHydrogen journey is no longer a distant vision, it is happening NOW. Join us tomorrow for a closed-door consultation with @upendratripath, Honorary Global Advisor, @Indiah2a and other industry leaders to exchange perspectives on advancing green hydrogen ecosystem.
Congrats @SECI_Ltd on India’s first green ammonia reverse auction. 75,000 TPA at Rs 55.75/kg ($641/MT), a globally competitive low price. With @ntpclimited's 70,000 TPA at Rs 51.80/kg (~$621/MT), these milestones will kick-off #fertilizer offtake in India. bit.ly/3HhHGBd
IH2A proposes hydrogen purchase obligations for refinery, ammonia plants: The India Hydrogen Alliance (IH2A) has proposed that the government consider introducing a 10% hydrogen purchase obligation (HPO) for… dlvr.it/TKfcnN#SolarEnergy#IndiaSolar#RenewableIndia
IH2A proposes a 10% green hydrogen mandate for existing refinery and ammonia plants and 100% for new ones by 2030, to replace grey hydrogen with green. dlvr.it/TKdXhz#hydrogen#HydrogenNow#H2View
At the 3rd PtX Green Shipping Training in Mumbai, Ms. Kerban Rajdeo highlighted that the @IH2A has strongly advocated for the creation of #GreenHydrogenHubs for supporting the ecosystem since 2022.

Congratulations @BPCLimited on commissioning its first #GreenHydrogen plant at Bina Refinery, Madhya Pradesh. Powered by two advanced 500 Nm³/hour electrolysers, this 5 MW facility marks a major milestone in supporting India’s decarbonization goals. bit.ly/3RFUZNm
IH2A welcomes the $100B India–Saudi Arabia pact, including $50B for Saudi-funded refineries and green hydrogen projects in India by @SABIC and @aramco. A big boost for India’s clean energy goals.

ALT An image of Upendra Tripathy with the following quote - Looking forward to working as honorary global advisor to the industry to commercialize green hydrogen by replicating the learnings from the National Solar Mission. The national ambitions of 5 MTPA green hydrogen by 2030, 125 GW of Renewable Energy for Green Hydrogen, over INR 8 lakh crores investments announced, potential to create 600,000 new hydrogen economy jobs and 50 MTPA of carbon abatement, that is expected in the next 5-6 years is a sign of the transformation that the hydrogen transition is expected to achieve. For India, this is well begun and half done.
Green Hydrogen's Moment of Truth? My opening keynote at the 9th Annual Conference on Green Hydrogen in India, on behalf of India Hydrogen Alliance, was a reality check on green hydrogen, past the hype. While India makes and uses 7 million tonnes of hydrogen annually, green hydrogen remains a tiny fraction, 3 years into the National Green Hydrogen Mission. But this can change - very quickly - with a policy tweak, and the $4-5B on the table from WB, EIB et al for green hydrogen in India can finally be used. The policy tweak? HPOs: Hydrogen Purchase Obligations.
📣 HINTCO Roadshow kicks off for 2nd H2Global tender!
Hintco GmbH is in Mumbai to engage hydrogen & derivative producers through an open, non-discriminatory workshop. Supported by @IGEFSO, H2Uppp, @IndoGerman, @Indiah2a, HAI, @GH2India.
At the Global Hydrogen & Renewable Energy Summit in Kochi, Kerala, Narendra Nath Veluri IFS, Chief Executive Officer, ANERT (Agency for New and Renewable Energy Research and Technology), shared insights on how this ambitious policy will shape India’s green energy landscape.
Congratulations to @mnreindia for a remarkable step forward in India's green energy journey. This milestone is a huge leap toward decarbonizing India’s transport sector, and we commend MNRE for driving innovation and collaboration in the green hydrogen space.

India’s Leap towards Green Hydrogen: 3 Hydrogen-Powered Trucks Begin Their Journey on Indian Roads!
Hon’ble Union Minister Shri Pralhad Joshi @JoshiPralhad flagged off trials for the first fleet of Hydrogen-Powered heavy-duty trucks, marking a major milestone in the #GreenHydrogenMission. This revolutionary step will transform India’s mobility sector and reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
With a ₹19,744 crore investment, India is set to lead in Green Hydrogen, targeting 5 MMT annual production by 2030. This initiative will cut 50 MMT of CO₂ emissions, lower fossil fuel imports, and strengthen energy security.
Hydrogen-Powered transport is the future of India! 🇮🇳
