4 technologies that are accelerating the green hydrogen revolution

Green Hydrogen through Electrolysis: Fuelling the Future | WRI INDIA (wri-india.org) Anuraag Nallapaneni  and  Krishnaveni Malladi  -  August 25, 2021   This is the second in a series of blogs on hydrogen, which will involve discussions around range of electrolysis technologies currently available at commercial and laboratory levels. Given the rising global consensus towards the transition towards a green hydrogen economy in coming decades, availability of commercially operable electrolysis technologies will act as a backbone of hydrogen deployment across sectors. Maturity of electrolysis technologies would also be critical in facilitating India’s 450 GW RE target, given electrolysis’s ability to manage duck curve challenges through its power to gas (P2G) applicability, further banking on hydrogen’s ability to act as a long-term energy storage medium. Read the first blog  here . Splitting water molecules, or the process of electrolysis, is one of the most p...

India: Supporting Wind Power with Tax Incentives and Ensuring Project Sustainability

Clean Energy Solutions Center | India: Supporting Wind Power with Tax Incentives and Ensuring Project Sustainability   India’s domestic income tax law provides a 10-year tax holiday for wind generation and  distribution projects, if power generation began before 31 March 2014. Under this policy, wind  operations pay a minimum alternative tax of approximately 20% (based on income). After 10  years of operation, the tax can be offset. This policy design element helps to ensure ongoing  operation of the plant and sustainable deployment outcomes
