Public procurement under Industrial Deep Decarbonisation Initiative (IDDI)

India is introducing timebound procurement commitments for low-emission steel, cement, and concrete in public construction, aiming to indirectly stimulate demand for low-emissions hydrogen. These commitments are guided by emissions thresholds based on life cycle assessment (LCA) methodologies, aligned with the country’s net-zero targets for public buildings and infrastructure. This approach is expected to create a predictable market signal for cleaner industrial materials and support the scale-up of hydrogen-based production technologies.
