In a matter of 15 days in February 2024, the Government of India issued pilot project guidelines for the use of green hydrogen in three different sectors, namely – shipping, steel manufacturing and transport – with a total budgetary outlay of Rs10,660 million (US$127.92 million). The pilot projects aim to demonstrate green hydrogen’s technical feasibility and performance as a fuel in real-world...

“We can’t be cannibalizing current demand by using those renewables” already on the grid, Behar said. ​“We need a strong 45V rule that will protect against harmful climate impacts. If we have weak or blurred rules, it can really carry significant climate and emissions risks that will undermine both the achievement of climate goals and industry credibility.” New technologies Startup...
