"Green hydrogen will not only enable us to reduce emissions but also help India across several verticals and align with PM Modi's vision of our nation being self-reliant," he noted.
"It's about time that we collectively work towards making India a Green Hydrogen Hub, not just for ourselves but for the bigger picture where we are considerate of the world as a whole. We have the capability and the capacity to facilitate clean hydrogen energy for the world; this is the appropriate time to get into action and create a world worth thriving in," said Singh.
The minister also launched the National Hydrogen Portal www.greenhydrogen-India.com.
The platform is a one-stop information source for research, production, storage, transportation and application of hydrogen across India.
