A panel within the Goods and Services Council in India has recommended a significant reduction in the Goods and Services Tax (GST) on green hydrogen, storage batteries, and electrolysers. The proposal aims to bring down the current tax rate of 18% to 5% to encourage the affordability and uptake of clean energy solutions. This recommendation is part of an effort to support India's clean energy goals and promote sustainable practices in the energy sector. The fitment committee, responsible for assessing tax rates, has also supported lowering the GST on storage batteries and electrolysers used in green hydrogen production to 5%. The industry has been actively advocating for these tax reductions, highlighting the potential for increased adoption of green hydrogen technologies if the tax burden is lessened. The proposed tax cuts are expected to be discussed and potentially approved at the upcoming GST Council meeting scheduled for July. This initiative aligns with broader efforts to promote clean energy sources and reduce carbon emissions. In conjunction with national objectives, partnerships like the India-EU Clean Energy and Climate Partnership are fostering cooperation on projects, research, and the integration of green hydrogen imports into the energy landscape, emphasizing the importance of sustainable energy practices for a greener future.
