India: Centre Seeks Proposals to Develop Green Hydrogen Innovation Hubs

The Centre has invited expressions of interest (EoI) for developing hydrogen valley innovation clusters (HVIC) in the country. The Department of Science and Technology’s guidelines define a hydrogen valley as a specific geographic region where hydrogen serves more than one end sector or application in mobility, industry, and energy. This includes all steps in the hydrogen value chain, from production, storage, and transport to distribution to various off-takers, as well as renewable electricity production from hydrogen.

 

The government will provide up to Rs. 2.5 million in assistance for the preparation of detailed project reports (DPR) which must be completed within 45 days of the project’s allocation.

 

EoIs will be evaluated in May, and funding for the recommended EoIs for DPR preparation will also occur in that month. The DPRs will be evaluated and shortlisted in July, with the project expected to start in October 2023 and finish by 2028.
