  • Monitoring: A scheme monitoring committee, co-chaired by the secretary of MoPNG, secretary of the MNRE, mission director of the NGHM, and other experts, will periodically review the implementation status and performance of capacities awarded under the scheme. 

About Green Hydrogen

National Green Hydrogen Mission (NGHM)

  • Aim: To make India a global hub for producing, utilising, and exporting green hydrogen and its derivatives.
  • Implementation: Ministry of New & Renewable Energy
  • Sub Schemes under the National Green Hydrogen Mission: SIGHT & Green Hydrogen Hubs
