Context
India is adopting ambitious goals for deploying solutions
such as clean hydrogen, energy storage, carbon capture
and sustainable aviation fuels. This includes a target of
5 MMBTU10 production capacity of green hydrogen and
an electrolyzer manufacturing capacity equal to 40 GW by
2030. This will more than double the total global existing
manufacturing capacity at the end of 2023. Achieving this
is expected to require 42 GW of battery storage capacity.
There has also been an increasing interest in accelerating
advanced nuclear technologies in the fuel mix. These energy transition goals go hand in hand with the
country’s “Make in India” ambitions, which aim to build the
nation’s supply chains and industrial capacity. Creating strong
industries and supply chains in India is a central part of the
country’s advanced solutions strategy.
Various central-level policies and regulations have been
implemented over the past few years to promote domestic
manufacturing of advanced energy technologies and
components. The Make in India production-linked scheme is
an example of such an intervention to incentivize incremental
sales from products manufactured domestically.
In so many ways, the world’s energy
future will depend on India’s energy future.
Jennifer Granholm, US Secretary of Energy
Objective
The dialogue series aims to support the deployment of advanced energy solutions in India to
aid its increasing role in global advanced energy solutions supply chains. The dialogue series
also informs the global industry vision for the advanced energy solutions community. The key
objectives include:
Articulating the impact on job creation,
investment and healthcare savings
in India by building out domestic
supply chainsExploring the role India can play in
global advanced energy solutions
supply chains Suggesting policy tools to achieve
this vision
