The India Hydrogen Alliance (IH2A) has earmarked green methanol, ammonia and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) as pivotal solutions to decarbonise the Indian transportation sector.
The Low-Carbon e-fuels & Heavy Duty Transport Decarbonisation Report 2025-2030 stated that low-carbon e-fuels hubs of different scales and heavy-duty transport corridors along the nation’s east and west coast will be key to decarbonising heavy transport.
Decarbonising coastal shipping could reportedly lead to an annual demand of up to 194 million litres by 2030, necessitating approximately 40,000 tonnes of hydrogen. Therefore, green methanol hubs could be crucial, and present potential export opportunities to Singapore.
Additionally, the Indian shipping sector may demand 263 million litres per year by 2030 – around 50,000 tonnes of hydrogen – meaning green ammonia hubs could represent an opportunity, although they’re estimated to be 130% more expensive than green methanol.
