Reliance and Samsung C&T have just signed a $3 billion deal to make India the next green hydrogen superpower.

The press release calls it “one of the largest binding long-term Green Ammonia off-take agreements globally.”

The fact that Samsung surfaced quietly, signed a binding contract, and didn’t blink at a 2029 start date tells you the South Korean conglomerate sees this as strategic, not speculative.

Reliance has built its green ammonia strategy around a massive integrated energy hub in Jamnagar that will include manufacturing for electrolysers, batteries, and other clean-energy technologies.

Anant Ambani, Reliance’s executive director, said the company is committing to “indigenising the critical technologies of the energy transition” under a Make-in-India framework.

By 2032, Reliance intends to produce up to three million tonnes of green hydrogen, which is 60% of India’s 2030 national target.

The deal positions India as an emerging exporter of green fuels. India has never been in this conversation before, and now it is selling a product that doesn’t even exist yet to one of Asia’s industrial giants.

Samsung C&T runs a wide trading and investment arm focused on energy, metals, and chemicals. They could resell it, feed it into manufacturing chains, or just stockpile it.
