Can Bifacial Solar Make Green Hydrogen Affordable in India?
India's ambitious target of 5 million tonnes of green hydrogen production by 2030 faces one critical bottleneck: electricity costs. As dealers, distributors, and suppliers navigate this emerging opportunity, the question isn't whether green hydrogen will transform India's energy landscape—it's whether bifacial solar modules and cutting-edge solar infrastructure can slash production costs enough to make it commercially viable today, not tomorrow. The Economics That Keep Stakeholders Awake at Night Websol Energy System Ltd understands what every distributor already knows: green hydrogen's Achilles heel is the 50-60% of production costs consumed by electricity. Traditional electrolysis demands approximately 50-55 kWh to produce just one kilogram of hydrogen. When grid power in India averages ₹4-6 per kWh, simple mathematics reveals why green hydrogen struggles to compete with grey hydrogen at ₹150-180 per kg. For suppliers evaluating market entry, this cost diff...
