MNRE Designates 3 Ports As Green Hydrogen Hubs

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has designated three major ports — Deendayal Port Authority (Gujarat), V.O. Chidambaranar Port Authority (Tamil Nadu), and Paradip Port Authority (Odisha) — as Green Hydrogen Hubs under the National Green Hydrogen Mission (NGHM). 

Minister for Ports, Shipping and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal said, “Ports are an important node in this transition. As Green Hydrogen hubs, our ports will act as catalysts of clean energy innovation. As a maritime leader, India’s ports will not only empower their own country but also leverage its strategic positions along the eastern and western trade routes to drive the region towards sustainable logistics.”

To address logistical and technical challenges associated with long-distance hydrogen transport, the Mission follows a cluster-based development model.

This approach enhances early-stage project viability, promotes infrastructure convergence, and enables economies of scale.
