The green hydrogen sector in India experienced a pioneering impetus in July 2025, marked by a significant surge in capital-intensive projects, homegrown technology applications, and top-tier government-industry cooperation. The strategic actions, including the supply of domestic electrolysers and scaling up of green ammonia, demonstrate that the policy potential has become a driving force for action. Furthermore, the compatibility of international companies with Indian states, as well as the size of the declared projects, demonstrates to India its commitment to the process of industrial decarbonization and energy export. Meanwhile, trends such as innovation-centered projects like Hydrogen Valley clusters demonstrate that the efforts of R&D and commercialization are continuing simultaneously. All these are turning India into a strong competitor in the international hydrogen economy.
Oswal Energies Received its First 1 MW Electrolyser Stack from Greenzo Energy India
On July 5, 2025, Oswal Energies Ltd. received the first 1 MW electrolyser stack from Greenzo Energy India Ltd., marking the operational launch of its ambitious INR 320 crore (approximately USD 36.54 million) Green Hydrogen program.
This inaugural delivery initiates a 20 MW Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) deployment designed to supply clean hydrogen to the chemical and fertilizer industries. Over the next 12-18 months, the project will commission plants with a capacity of 0.5-5 MW using the Greenzo indigenous technology, which consists of advanced electrolyzers.
Yamna Signed a MoU with the Government of Andhra Pradesh in India to Develop a Large-Scale Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Project
On July 18, 2025, YamnaCo Ltd. inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with New and Renewable Energy Development Corporation of Andhra Pradesh (NREDCAP). The deal is the next milestone in Yamna's intention to build a big green hydrogen and green ammonia plant in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.
Project to be developed by leading green molecules producer Yamna, already engaged in advanced green ammonia projects worldwide, involving an investment of INR 16,000 crores (~USD 2 billion), and it is expected to create around 5,500 direct and indirect jobs in the region.
Production of 1 million tonnes green ammonia per annum in the vicinity of the port of Krishnapatnam in Andhra Pradesh, using renewable energy supplied through the Indian grid.
L&T Energy GreenTech to Set up India’s Largest Green Hydrogen Plant
On July 21, 2025, L&T Energy GreenTech Ltd (LTEG), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Larsen & Toubro (L&T), will set up India’s largest green hydrogen plant at Indian Oil Corporation Ltd’s (IOCL) Panipat Refinery in Haryana.
The plant will be developed on a build-own-operate (BOO) model. It will supply 10,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually to IOCL over 25 years to contribute to the Government of India in achieving its National Green Hydrogen Mission.
The facility will be fueled by renewable energy and will be operational on a 24/7 basis, which is another part of the net-zero strategy that IOCL has developed. It will also generate green hydrogen through high-pressure alkaline electrolysis using electrolysers produced in the state-of-the-art facility of L&T Electrolysers Ltd at Hazira, Gujarat.
JK Srivastava Hynfra Signed INR 35,000 Cr MoU with NREDCAP for Green Ammonia Hub in Andhra Pradesh
On July 29, 2025, JK Srivastava Hynfra (JKSH) signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the New and Renewable Energy Development Corporation of Andhra Pradesh (NREDCAP), the state renewable energy agency of Andhra Pradesh.
The deal will create a new scale production plant around the port of Visakhapatnam and intends to manufacture up to 1 million tons of green ammonia annually, as well as build 3 GW of renewable energy generation capacity.
The total cost of the investment would be INR 35,000 crore (approximately USD 4 billion), and production would start at the beginning of 2029. The centre will utilize solar and wind as the only source of power with battery storage and energy management systems.
A significant portion of the green ammonia will be exported to Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan to aid in the decarbonization of power production with co-firing using coal. The remaining ones will be deployed in India in the fertilizer, power, transport, and digital infrastructure sectors.
India allocated USD 7.8 million to Four Green Hydrogen Projects
On July 28, 2025, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) in India announced a central financial support amount of USD 7.8 million (INR 679.5 million) to four Hydrogen Valley Innovation Clusters (HVICs) to speed up the green hydrogen technology rollout in the country as part of its National Green Hydrogen Mission. These clusters will serve as regional centers where hydrogen is applied in the industry, energy systems, and the mobility sector.
The funding allocations include USD 2 million (INR 170.3 million) for CSIR-NCL in Pune, USD 2.4 million (INR 213.6 million) for ANERT in Kerala, and USD 1.7 million (INR 149.6 million) and USD 1.6 million (INR 146 million) for IIT campuses in Bhubaneswar and Jodhpur, respectively. It forms part of an MNRE R&D roadmap worth USD 48.12 million (launched in July 2023) aimed at commercializing green hydrogen by developing infrastructure and regulations.
What’s clear from this past month is that India’s green hydrogen sector isn’t just moving—it’s moving with purpose. These aren’t one-off announcements or small pilots. India’s seeing billion-dollar projects, global partnerships, and serious public-private coordination. Whether it’s electrolyser manufacturing, green ammonia for export, or clean hydrogen for refineries, the direction is consistent. India wants to lead in the green fuel space, and July proved it's willing to put money, policy, and infrastructure behind that goal. The transition is no longer a promise—it’s in progress.
