In a major push for India’s decarbonization efforts, Ohmium International, Inc., a green hydrogen company specializing in the design and manufacture of PEM electrolyzers, has partnered with Amp Energy India, a leading renewable energy independent power producer (IPP), to deploy 400 MW of green hydrogen projects across India. This collaboration aims to serve the growing demand for clean energy in various commercial and industrial sectors across the country.
Ohmium International is known for its innovative, safe, and modular PEM electrolyzers offering flexibility in project design and scalability. Amp Energy India is a strong player in India’s renewable energy space, with a diverse portfolio and expertise in delivering customized energy solutions to its clients.
This collaborative effort underscores the rising significance of green hydrogen within India’s energy landscape. The Indian government has prioritized green hydrogen, setting an ambitious goal of producing 5 million tonnes annually by 2030. This initiative aligns closely with India’s broader target of achieving net-zero emissions by 2070.
Our specialty focus areas include 
The Indian green hydrogen market is projected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of around 20.76% during 2025-30, driven by several factors, including declining renewable energy costs, increasing demand for clean fuels in industry, and favorable government policies.
While the green hydrogen sector in India offers vast potential, several key requirements and hurdles need attention:
- Cost Reduction: The current cost of green hydrogen production remains high, primarily due to expensive electrolyzers and renewable energy sources. Technological advancements and greater economies of scale are critical to achieving cost competitiveness.
- Infrastructure Development: India needs a robust infrastructure network for the transportation, storage, and distribution of green hydrogen.
- Workforce Development: Creating a skilled workforce with expertise in green hydrogen technologies is vital for the sector’s sustained growth.
The Ohmium and Amp Energy India partnership isn’t the only significant development in India’s green hydrogen arena. Companies like NTPC, GAIL, and Indian Oil Corporation have undertaken pilot projects and initiatives to blend green hydrogen into existing natural gas networks or produce it using various technologies. This highlights a growing trend of partnerships and alliances fostering innovation in the sector.
The Indian government’s proactive approach is accelerating the green hydrogen revolution. Key initiatives and policies include National Green Hydrogen Mission,which aims to make India a global hub for green hydrogen production and exports, production-linked incentives (PLI), and regulatory framework development.
While India currently imports many key components of the green hydrogen value chain, there’s a strong push for self-sufficiency. The government’s PLI schemes, increased R&D funding and focus on skill development are set to boost the indigenous manufacturing of electrolyzers, catalysts, membranes, and other critical equipment, ultimately leading to reduced costs and a stronger domestic supply chain.
In conclusion, India’s green hydrogen sector is rapidly evolving, attracting both domestic and international investments. Collaborative efforts like the Ohmium-Amp Energy India partnership, combined with favorable policies and a focus on indigenization, promise to unlock the vast potential of green hydrogen as a key pillar of India’s clean energy transition.
