Green hydrogen is particularly important for energy-intensive industrial sectors, such as the iron, e-SAF and fertilizer industry among others, which cannot be efficiently and cost-effectively decarbonized with purely electricity-based technologies. The use of gH2 in these sectors, especially in the context of India"s Net Zero Goal and projected pathway to more than double its domestic steel production capacity to 300MT by 2030 while already accounting for 42% of industrial GHG emissions, is well-suited to save significant amounts of CO2 and make an effective contribution to climate protection. The technical cooperation module thus contributes to the overarching German development goals in India, especially to the decarbonization of the economy with accelerated RE expansion and supports a modern and sustainable decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors in India. In the context of current geopolitical developments, access to cost-competitive green hydrogen derivatives constitutes a strategic interest for Germany and the European Union. To strengthen India"s developing hydrogen ecosystem offers a relevant framework for engagement by German companies across the hydrogen value chain and contributes to strengthening sustainable economic cooperation. The Project has the following Outputs: - Output 1 Indian public institutions have recommendations based on international experience for the implementation of India's hydrogen strategy. - Output 2 Companies and associations now have improved decision-making bases for the use of green hydrogen in industrial sectors that are difficult to electrify. - Output 3 The conditions for gender-equitable participation of actors from politics, business, science and civil society in the Indian green hydrogen economy have improved.
