India’s Reliance Industries Ltd is targeting to become one of the largest producers of blue hydrogen globally, producing the zero-emission fuel at costs that will be half of the global average, by repurposing INR 30,000 crore Jamnagar plant that currently converts petroleum coke into synthesis gas to produce blue hydrogen for USD 1.2-1.5 a kilogram.Hydrogen is labeled blue whenever the carbon generated from steam reforming is captured and stored. Blue hydrogen is, therefore, sometimes referred to as carbon neutral as the emissions are not dispersed in the atmosphere.Green hydrogen, also referred to as 'clean hydrogen, is produced by using clean energy from renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind power, to split water into two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom through a process called electrolysis. According to the European Commission's July 2020 hydrogen strategy, green hydrogen produced with renewable resources costs between USD 3-6.55 per kg
