Report Highlights Cost Challenges for Indian Green Hydrogen Projects Without Chinese Electrolysers
A recent SBICAPS report highlights that green hydrogen projects in India may not be profitable if electrolysers are sourced outside China, due to China's cost advantages and overcapacity in electrolyser manufacturing. Despite this, aggressive bidding has lowered green hydrogen tariffs to competitive levels, with significant contracts awarded under India's SIGHT program. The report suggests focusing on national research and development for new technologies while allowing easier imports initially to support India's 2030 green hydrogen capacity goals.
