...The aim of the funding initiative is “to make green hydrogen affordable and bring down its cost over the next five years. It will also help India reduce its emissions and become a major exporter in the field,” said Anurag Thakur, India’s minister for information and broadcasting.

Is it just me, or is this really dumb? India gets most of its power from coal. By dedicating a bunch of renewable generation to "green" hydrogen, do you not just displace that from the grid, where those renewables would have replaced coal?
