The Indian government has identified Linde as a key player in their efforts to promote development and innovation. Linde's advanced technology will help scale up innovation in India, particularly in the production of green hydrogen using PEM electrolysis. However, producing reliable, cost-effective, and scalable green hydrogen will require a period of five to seven years.

In addition, Linde's CEO has mentioned the generous incentives provided by the US government, which have built significant momentum in the US market for both blue and green hydrogen investments. Linde is currently working on 200 projects worldwide and plans to invest USD 50 billion in clean energy over the next ten years.
