India increases green ammonia allocation for fertiliser sector

It added 200,000 tonnes per annum.

In response to the rising demand for green hydrogen driven by enhanced efforts to implement the National Green Hydrogen Mission, the Indian government revised its guidelines to increase green ammonia allocation for the fertiliser sector to 750,000 lakh tonnes per annum from 550,000 lakh tonnes per annum.

According to the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE), “[t]his is a significant step towards demand creation of green hydrogen and its derivatives in the country.”

The National Green Hydrogen Mission was launched in January 2023. It aims to achieve a production capacity of 5 million tonnes per annum of green hydrogen by 2030.

“It will contribute to India’s goal to become Aatmanirbhar (self-reliant) through clean energy and serve as an inspiration for the global Clean Energy Transition,” MNRE said. 

“The mission will lead to significant decarbonization of the economy, reduced dependence on fossil fuel imports, and enable India to assume technology and market leadership in green hydrogen,” it added.
