How innovations in electrolyzer technology are making green hydrogen more affordable
The cost-effectiveness of green hydrogen hinges on the efficiency and scalability of electrolysers. Historically, the high cost of electrolysers and the electricity required for water electrolysis have been significant barriers. However, recent technological innovations are addressing these challenges.

India to face significant land, water challenges in scaling renewables beyond 1.5 TW, says CEEW study
A new report by CEEW states that India’s unconstrained RE potential exceeds 24 TW (terawatts), but not all of it is achievable. Even reaching the 7 TW required to achieve net-zero emissions by 2070 will require a holistic approach to addressing challenges such as land access, climate risks, land conflicts, and population density.
