At Renewable Watch’s Green Hydrogen in India conference, Tarkesh Tiwari, Vice President, Strategy and Business Development, Essar Ports gave a presentation on Green Hydrogen Development in Ports.
Key Highlights:
- Indian ports have experienced significant growth, playing a crucial role in facilitating trade and economic development. Ports can play an important part in the hydrogen ecosystem by providing key logistics support.
- This will drive a transition to zero-emission operations within the port, improving air quality and lowering the port’s overall carbon footprint.
- Among various derivatives of hydrogen, green ammonia is among the most favored as it does not contain any carbon. Green ammonia presents unique advantages as a carrier for green hydrogen.
- Abundance of solar and wind power will power the green hydrogen revolution in India where port must play an important role in terms of developing infrastructure for trade of green hydrogen.
- The Indian government aims to have green hydrogen bunkering facilities at all 12 major ports by 2035. The Ministry of Shipping has identified three ports to set up green hydrogen hubs: Tuticorin, Kandla and Paradip.
