ICRA, one of India's leading ratings-cum-research agencies, believes that as much as 60 GW of renewable energy capacity will be requried to support India's demand for green hydrogen by 2030, which it expects to be 9 million tons (compared with around 5 mt of grey hydrogen today).
Hydrogen demand is expected to be around 9 MMT by the year 2030, basis annual demand growth of 4% inhydrogen consumption. As per industry estimates, considering a scenario of 30% of hydrogen requirement beingmet through Green Hydrogen by the existing industrial users, electrolyser capacity is estimated between 20-25 GW, according to Rohit Ajuja, Head - Research and Outreach, ICRA.
Hydrogen demand for ammonia stood at around 2.9 MMT currently as per ICRA’s estimates and is expected togrow to 4.3 MMT by the year 2030 primarily driven by increase in urea production. It is estimated that ~30% i.e. ~1 MMT will be by way of green hydrogen which may help production of ~5 MMT green ammonia in the year 2030.
