The two-day event will bring together policymakers, scientists, and industry leaders to discuss strategies for building a robust and sustainable green hydrogen ecosystem in India.
Focus on Building a Green Hydrogen Ecosystem
According to MNRE, the conference will feature plenary sessions, expert panels, and technical discussions focused on expanding green hydrogen production and its role in achieving India’s net-zero goals. Delegates will examine the challenges in scaling up hydrogen technology, financing clean energy infrastructure, and ensuring a secure supply chain for the emerging hydrogen economy.
India’s Renewable Energy Milestones
The event comes at a time when India is witnessing record renewable energy expansion. In the first half of the 2025–26 financial year, 3,089 MW of wind capacity was added, with projections indicating total additions of around 6 GW by year-end — the highest in the country’s history. Solar energy also continues to soar, reaching 21,686 MW in new installations and a cumulative capacity of 1,27,332 MW by September 2025.
Global and Domestic Collaboration
ICGH-2025 aims to foster international cooperation by linking India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission with global best practices. The conference will explore partnerships for research, electrolyser manufacturing, and hydrogen mobility. With India targeting 5 million tonnes of annual green hydrogen production by 2030, discussions are expected to centre on innovation, investment, and policy frameworks necessary to achieve this goal.
