Nitin Gadkari Encourages Cement & Steel Industries to Use Green Hydrogen

Union minister said it is now time that cement and steel industries start using green hydrogen as energy instead of coal for production. "It is now time for using green hydrogen as energy in the cement and steel industry in place of coal. We should work on value addition by running metal industries, where mining products are using green hydrogen as energy. We will have to protect the environment and increase our production at the same time," he said. He said it is not the job of the government to run a business. "Big financial discipline is taking place through divestment. Those (PSUs) who are in profit and doing well should perform better and stressed on important performance audit which he said is more important than financial audit," he said.
