But this time the company is in focus for its green hydrogen business. Prime minister Narendra Modi in his Independence Day speech said, “Green Hydrogen is the future of the world. Today, I announce the setting up of the National Hydrogen Mission with the aim of becoming the new global hub of Green Hydrogen, and also its largest exporter.”

It is the only company to cover every step in the hydrogen value chain from production and processing through distribution and storage to everyday industrial and consumer applications.
According to Haitong fertilizer plants are likely to adopt ‘Green Hydrogen’ much faster than steel plants. In steel plants, substituting coal with hydrogen is very difficult as a lot of quantity of hydrogen would be required and to get such a huge quantity of hydrogen a huge setup of hydrogen production is required, so using hydrogen in steel plants would take a long time. On the other hand, in the case of fertilizer plants, hydrogen produced through electrolysis is combined with nitrogen to form ammonia. This will also reduce consumption of natural gas.
“Through the ITM Linde Electrolysis (ILE) joint venture, Linde is one of the world’s leading suppliers of PEM electrolyzer technologies (proton-exchange membranes), which means that its customers can rely on end-to-end, integrated green H2 solutions,” stated Haitong in a report.
On the financial front also Linde India has posted stellar Q2CY2021 performance and reported a net profit of Rs 72.50 crore for the quarter ended June 2021 compared to a profit of Rs 19.81 crore in the year-ago period. Revenue from operations grew 109% to Rs 519.17 crore in the June-ended quarter against Rs 248.13 crore a year ago.
