India announces partnership with the European Hydrogen Week

The second day of the International Conference on Green Hydrogen (ICGH-2024), held at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, witnessed the announcement of India’s exclusive partnership with the European Hydrogen Week, scheduled to be held in November 2024. The day highlighted India’s intent to address the green regulations of EU to boost exports. In addition, a Letter of Intent (LoI) was signed between Chane Terminal from Netherlands and ACME Cleantech from India for Ammonia import terminals. This agreement focuses on setting up ammonia import terminals, marking an important international collaboration.

Key sessions were led by representatives from the EU, Australia, and the Netherlands, discussing how green hydrogen can help the world reduce carbon emissions. A highlight of the discussions was the EU’s Emission Trading System (ETS), which is being reformed to set a price on carbon and promote hydrogen as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels.

The Youth Session focused on the role of young innovators in shaping the future of green hydrogen. Ministries encouraged the youth to participate in sustainable practices, noting that the hydrogen sector has the potential to create millions of jobs by 2050.

The conference featured over 100 stalls where companies displayed the latest technologies related to the green hydrogen value chain. Country Roundtables and talks with nations like Singapore and South Korea deepened strategic dialogues about hydrogen and its future.

ICGH-2024 serves as a key platform for promoting green hydrogen technologies and fostering international partnerships. It brings together countries, companies, and young innovators to work towards a sustainable future and tackle the challenges of climate change.
