The Uttar Pradesh government aims to provide rooftop solar panels to 25,000 homes in Varanasi and solarisation to 13.5 lakh households statewide. The state has also received proposals worth ₹2.73 trillion for green hydrogen facilities, which could create employment opportunities in renewable energy. The government is actively participating in the National Green Hydrogen Mission and offering subsidies for biomass collection machinery and biofuel units. The focus on green hydrogen aligns with India's goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2070.
