India and Spain Join Forces for Green Hydrogen Advancement
Key Ideas
- The Hydrogen Association of India and the Spanish Hydrogen Association have signed an MoU to enhance cooperation in green hydrogen technologies.
- Focus areas include R&D, manufacturing, and workforce development to accelerate production and deployment.
- India aims to achieve 5 MMT of green hydrogen production capacity by 2030, while Spain targets 74% of industrial hydrogen demand with green hydrogen by 2030.
- The partnership aims to leverage Spanish technology and Indian manufacturing to drive down costs and support the global clean energy transition.
The Hydrogen Association of India (HAI) and the Spanish Hydrogen Association (AeH2) have come together by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to advance cooperation in green hydrogen technologies. The agreement, formalized by the presidents of both associations, focuses on joint ventures, research collaborations, and knowledge exchange. Key areas of collaboration include R&D, manufacturing, and workforce development to scale up production and deployment. India aims to achieve 5 million metric tons (MMT) of green hydrogen production capacity by 2030, with the current demand projected to rise significantly. On the other hand, Spain targets meeting a large portion of its industrial hydrogen demand with green hydrogen by 2030, emphasizing the importance of partnerships like this to drive down costs and advance electrolyzer technologies. The synergy between Spanish technology and Indian manufacturing is seen as crucial to making green hydrogen more cost-competitive. Through this collaboration, both nations aim to strengthen their hydrogen ecosystems and contribute to the global clean energy transition.
