29 October 2026

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy reported that signed offtake commitments for green hydrogen and its derivatives by Indian companies have reached about 5,55,610 tonnes a year.
That is close to eleven per cent of the volume targeted under the National Green Hydrogen Mission.
Twenty-three offtake contracts have been signed since the mission began in 2023, and more than seventy per cent of the contracted volume is meant for export.
In 2026 alone Indian companies signed eighteen new agreements covering over four lakh tonnes a year.
The projects behind these contracts are expected to draw investment of about ninety thousand crore rupees.
On the domestic side, eleven fertiliser units have signed up for green ammonia and four refineries have been allotted green hydrogen under the mission's transition programme.
The mission was approved with an outlay of 19,744 crore rupees up to 2029-30 and aims at least five million tonnes of green hydrogen a year by 2030.
