The Indo-German Chamber of Commerce (IGCC) in collaboration with the Indo-German Energy Forum Support Office (IGEF-SO) and the International Hydrogen Ramp-up Program (H2Uppp) organised a webinar on “Scaling Up Together: German Large-Scale Electrolyser Technology for India’s Green Hydrogen Economy” on 7th August 2025. It was supported by Green Hydrogen India (GH2 India) and Women in Green Hydrogen (WiGH) South Asia and was attended by more than 200 participants.
The webinar showcased how advanced German electrolyser technologies can meet India’s green hydrogen demand at scale. Participants gained insights into efficiency, scalability, and industrial applications, learned from real-world experiences from Siemens Energy and thyssenkrupp nucera, explored adaptation to Indian needs, and engaged in a live Q&A with technology providers.
Mr. Georg Jahnsen, Head of Project, H2uppp, GIZ India, emphasised the Indo-German Green Hydrogen Roadmap, ongoing PPP projects, and the shared vision of positioning India as a global green hydrogen hub, while thanking all partners and stakeholders for their collaboration.
Ms. Shivani Chaturvedi, Regional Director, Indo-German Chamber of Commerce (IGCC), emphasised the vast potential for collaboration between India and Germany in the green hydrogen space, highlighting how initiatives like this webinar help deepen mutual understanding and accelerate joint action.
Mr. Amar Singh, Country Business Unit Head, Siemens Energy India, in his presentation on “Preparation for Market-Readiness for Gigawatt Scaling”, underscored the importance of building scalable and safe PEM electrolyzer platforms backed by more than 150 years of Siemens Energy innovation. He pointed to the company’s Elyzer P-300 full stack array, the multi-gigawatt factory ramp-up in Germany, and the learnings from large-scale projects across Europe as key enablers for accelerating India’s green hydrogen economy.
Mr. Amol Gaikwad, Deputy General Manager at thyssenkrupp nucera, showcased the company’s Scalum Alkaline Water Electrolysis (AWE) model along with ongoing projects across Europe and Asia. He further highlighted the upcoming Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC) technology, soon to be commercialized, as the next step in advancing green hydrogen production.
The webinar reinforced the growing Indo-German collaboration in green hydrogen, fostering knowledge exchange and partnerships to accelerate India’s clean energy transition and global leadership in the sector.
