Solve 5 National Green Hydrogen Mission questions for RAS/RPSC preparation.

Practice questions

Q1Consider the following statements about the National Green Hydrogen Mission: 1. Component I of SIGHT supports domestic electrolyser manufacturing. 2. Component II of SIGHT supports green hydrogen production. Which of the statements is/are correct?

A 1 only
B 2 only
C Both 1 and 2
D Neither 1 nor 2
Explanation

SIGHT has two distinct incentive components. Component I carries ₹4,440 crore for domestic electrolyser manufacturing, while Component II carries ₹13,050 crore for green hydrogen production. Since each statement assigns the right activity to its component, both 1 and 2 are correct.

Q2Consider the following statements about India's Green Hydrogen Standard: 1. The well-to-gate emission threshold is an annual average of no more than 2 kg carbon-dioxide equivalent per kg of hydrogen. 2. The Bureau of Energy Efficiency is the nodal certification authority. 3. The threshold is assessed only at the point of final hydrogen use. How many statements are correct?

A Two
B One
C Three
D None
Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 are correct: the notified standard caps annual average well-to-gate emissions at 2 kg carbon-dioxide equivalent per kg of hydrogen, and names the Bureau of Energy Efficiency as the nodal certification authority. Statement 3 is false because it replaces the well-to-gate boundary with final-use-only assessment. Hence two statements are correct.

Q3Which pair correctly states the National Green Hydrogen Mission's 2030 capacity targets?

A 3 MMT green hydrogen and 100 GW renewable energy
B At least 5 MMT green hydrogen and about 125 GW renewable energy
C At least 5 MMT green hydrogen and about 50 GW renewable energy
D 10 MMT green hydrogen and about 125 GW renewable energy as the minimum target
Explanation

By 2030, the Mission targets at least 5 MMT of annual green-hydrogen production capacity and about 125 GW of associated renewable-energy capacity addition. The packet treats about 10 MMT only as a possible scale-up with export demand, so option B alone gives the target pair accurately.

Q4Which of the following pilot-area and outlay pairs is incorrect under the National Green Hydrogen Mission?

A Low-carbon steel — ₹455 crore
B Mobility — ₹496 crore
C Green Hydrogen Hubs — ₹400 crore
D Shipping — ₹455 crore
Explanation

Shipping pilot projects receive ₹115 crore, not ₹455 crore. The ₹455 crore figure belongs to low-carbon steel; mobility receives ₹496 crore and Green Hydrogen Hubs receive ₹400 crore. Thus option D mismatches a pilot area with another area's allocation and is the incorrect pair.

Q5What is the initial outlay of the National Green Hydrogen Mission up to FY 2029-30?

A ₹19,744 crore
B ₹17,490 crore
C ₹1,466 crore
D ₹400 crore
Explanation

The Mission has an initial outlay of ₹19,744 crore up to FY 2029-30. This total comprises ₹17,490 crore for SIGHT, ₹1,466 crore for pilots, ₹400 crore for research and development, and ₹388 crore for other components; therefore option A is correct.
