Green fuels
Not met yet — counts as met once you answer a question on it.
Low-carbon alternative fuels relevant to India's energy transition: green hydrogen produced via electrolysis using renewable electricity under the National Green Hydrogen Mission, 2023; green ammonia; sustainable aviation fuel (SAF); and compressed biogas (CBG) under the SATAT scheme notified by MoPNG. These fuels target hard-to-abate sectors — shipping, aviation, heavy industry — where direct electrification is infeasible. India aims to become a green hydrogen export hub with a 5 MMT production target by 2030. Distinct from ethanol blending (governed under EBP) and conventional CNG/LPG infrastructure policy.
