Abstract

The Bharat is the largest economy with a humongous population that has increasing energy demands day by day. Clean energy sources like green hydrogen are necessary to balance climate change and meet energy demand, which also reduce carbon footprints in related energy sectors. This paper critically reviews the need of green hydrogen, production, storage and transportation strategies, the role of government schemes, and prominent private corporations working in the Indian green hydrogen sector. Efforts are made to analyze available data and current advisory regulations pertaining to the green hydrogen ecosystem in India. Based on this, suggestions are made for a research and development roadmap for establishing a green hydrogen value chain. This research paper suggests salt caverns as potential geological structures for hydrogen storage chains and also sheds light on potential collaborative initiatives and pilot projects for improving the efficiency and sustainability of the green hydrogen value chain across developing countries like India.
