Green hydrogen to become primary fuel for steelmaking in India only by 2050
The steel industry in India will replace around 25-30% of its grey hydrogen requirements with green hydrogen in the early part of the 2030-50 period. This will increase to 80% by 2050, says a new report by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) and JMK Research & Analytics.
Declining populations free up agricultural land for large amounts of solar in densely populated countries
