Hydrogen produced using renewable power is starting to sell for less than that made with natural gas in India, according to a producer there.

The country is reliant on imports to meet its demand for natural gas, and that expense is reflected in the price of so-called gray hydrogen. That may be tilting the balance in favor of the green version, which has typically been far costlier to produce.
