India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission Boosts Green Ammonia Production with Cost-Based Bidding

India has taken a significant step towards creating demand for Green Hydrogen and its derivatives by issuing a Request for Selection for Green Ammonia Producers through cost-based competitive bidding under the National Green Hydrogen Mission. The Solar Energy Corporation of India will be overseeing the bidding process for the production and supply of 5.39 lakh Metric Tonnes of Green Ammonia to fertilizer companies. This move aims to boost green ammonia production in the country.

The Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) Programme, implemented by the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy, includes incentives for the procurement of Green Ammonia production under Mode 2A of the National Green Hydrogen Mission. Along with allocating capacity for Green Hydrogen production and Electrolyzer manufacturing, SECI has been appointed as the implementing agency for this Scheme. This initiative is part of India’s efforts to transition towards a greener and more sustainable energy future.

The issuance of the Request for Selection marks a significant development in India’s push towards green hydrogen and ammonia production. By incentivizing and promoting the production of Green Ammonia, the country is taking a proactive approach towards reducing carbon emissions and promoting clean energy solutions. With SECI overseeing the bidding process and allocation of production capacity, the country is moving towards a more sustainable and eco-friendly future.
