The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has announced that Indian companies have signed 23 green hydrogen offtake agreements totalling 555,610 metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) as of October 2026, including 18 new agreements signed during 2026. Over 70 per cent of the committed volumes are earmarked for exports, with the projects expected to attract investments of approximately Rs 900 billion. These commitments account for approximately 11 per cent of the National Green Hydrogen Mission’s target of producing 5 million tonnes of green hydrogen annually by 2030.
Furthermore, the agreements cover green ammonia and green methanol supplies to markets including Japan, Germany and South Korea. Key agreements involve ACME Group, Larsen & Toubro, Reliance Industries Limited and AM Green. On the domestic front, agreements have been signed under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) programme for supplying 670,000 MTPA of green ammonia to 11 fertiliser units and 30,000 MTPA of green hydrogen to four public sector oil refineries.
In September 2026, SECI issued a request for selection for the selection of green ammonia producers for the production and supply of 54,000 MTPA of green ammonia in India through cost-based competitive bidding under the SIGHT scheme (Mode-2A, Tranche-II).
