The India Hydrogen Alliance has released a report advocating for the establishment of fuel hubs dedicated to green hydrogen, derived fuels, and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) across India.
This initiative aims to decarbonize the country’s heavy transport sectors, which are significant contributors to greenhouse gas emissions.
The report highlights how incorporating green hydrogen into heavy transport can provide an eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels. The proposed fuel hubs would serve as centralized points for the production and distribution of green hydrogen and related fuels. These hubs would facilitate easier access for transportation networks, encouraging the transition to more sustainable fuel options. The idea is to create an infrastructure that supports a large-scale shift to greener alternatives.
Adopting green hydrogen and SAF in heavy transport could help India achieve its climate goals. The move can mitigate environmental damage caused by traditional fuels, increase energy efficiency, and open new economic opportunities related to renewable energy technologies.
The India Hydrogen Alliance’s report lays out a roadmap for transitioning to sustainable fuel options in heavy transport. It underscores the importance of collaboration among industry stakeholders, policymakers, and technology providers to realize the full potential of green hydrogen.
