🌊 Decarbonizing Global Shipping: India’s Emerging Role

The global shipping industry — responsible for over 80% of world trade — is now facing a major climate challenge. With increasing trade comes higher emissions, and the pressure to go green is stronger than ever.

To achieve net-zero by 2040–2050, the industry is exploring green fuels like hydrogen, methanol, and ammonia. However, these alternatives demand major changes in ship technology, safety standards, and fuel infrastructure. The path is slow and expensive.

This is where India steps in.

With one of the world’s fastest-growing renewable energy sectors, India is poised to become a global hub for green fuel production. Our abundant solar capacity and strong policy push toward green hydrogen and ammonia position us as a potential supplier to global refueling hubs like Singapore.

Plans are already in motion — green fuel bunkering stations at Tuticorin and Kandla ports signal India's ambition to lead the maritime energy transition. Beyond reducing emissions, this shift could transform India's role in global trade and shipbuilding.

Decarbonizing isn’t just an environmental necessity — it’s a chance for India to anchor the future of sustainable shipping. 🌱🚢
