About this scheme
The Government of Odisha offers an Electricity Duty Exemption under its Industrial Policy Resolution 2022. The scheme applies to Green Hydrogen and Green Ammonia manufacturing units set up in the state, and waives 100% of the Electricity Duty payable by them.
Because these industries consume large amounts of power, the exemption lowers their operating costs and improves their competitiveness, which is expected to draw investment into the sector.
The scheme forms part of India's wider renewable energy goals and is intended to make Odisha a destination for green technology investment.
