India is planning to Collaborate with France on Green Hydrogen

Current Context: Recently a workshop has been organized on decarbonized hydrogen by France and the Council on Energy, Environment, and Water (CEEW) in India in which a joint declaration of intent has already been agreed upon between the two countries.

Presently India has 158 GW of installed capacity for renewable energy and another 87 GW is in the pipeline. with the help of this collaboration, India can achieve its target.
As green hydrogen holds immense promise as a clean energy vector of the future. Both the countries can team up on green hydrogen to accelerate the clean energy transition, and meet carbon neutrality targets.
France is a co-founder International solar alliance and also set up a cooperation roadmap between relevant ministries on renewable energy.
They were also investing enormously in clean energy in India and are in the process of developing more than 24 GW of renewable energy projects in the country.
Now both countries are working on decarbonized hydrogen so that it can apply to many sectors of the economy like refinery, fertilizers, petrochemicals, steel, heavy mobility, shipping, and aviation.
