Hydrogen

Around 92% of the required investments—about $3.79 trillion—would flow into the energy transition, spanning renewable energy, storage, clean mobility, and green hydrogen.

Green hydrogen is not just an energy alternative, it’s an industrial revolution in motion. For India’s steel industry, it offers a chance to rewrite the script: from being one of the largest emitters to becoming a global model for sustainable growth.

A 2 MW solar park in Wallonia, Belgium, will rely 50 kW of hydrogen-producing solar modules developed by Solhyd, a spin-off from KU Lueven. The installation will be the first demonstration of Solhyd’s technology at a commercially-relevant scale.

Jharkhand’s vast renewable energy potential, combined with its industrial base and critical mineral reserves, positions the state to emerge as a hub for low-carbon manufacturing, ranging from EVs, solar panels and battery energy storage systems (BESS) to green hydrogen production.

As nations move towards low-carbon economies, hydrogen pipelines could become the backbone of industrial decarbonisation, linking production hubs to demand centres with efficiency, safety, and reliability. Building this backbone is not just an engineering task; it is a strategic investment in a cleaner energy future.

The investment, led by energy transition-focused venture capital firm Transition VC, will accelerate HYDGEN’s efforts to make ultra-pure, cost-efficient hydrogen available directly at the point of use through its anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyzer technology.

Desco Infratech Ltd has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with KPI Green Hydrogen and Ammonia and Naveriya Gas for hydrogen-natural gas blending projects in the City Gas Distribution (CGD) sector.

ACME Group and Vietnam’s Stavian Industrial Metal have executed a binding term sheet for long-term sale and purchase of 0.8 MTPA of green HBI (Hot Briquetted Iron) and DRI (Direct Reduced Iron)—two critical raw materials used in steelmaking—for a period of ten years.

TKIL Industries (formerly thyssenkrupp Industries India) has entered into a strategic partnership with German company 2G Energy International to introduce combined heat and power (CHP) plant and gas engine solutions in India.

The International Solar Alliance (ISA) Assembly will focus on four key areas: catalyzing finance for solar projects, building global capability centres and advancing digitization, enhancing regional and country-level engagement, and developing technology and policy roadmaps.
