Kreston SNR will be taking part in the International Climate Summit 2022 – Opportunities for Green Hydrogen in India, scheduled to be held in Bergen, Norway on 30 and 31 August 2022.
Kreston SNR is the knowledge partner to the Summit which has been organised by Greenstat of Norway and the PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PHDCCI), in partnership with Invest India and other notable support partners.
The summit is an excellent opportunity to engage the international community in India’s transition journey from fossil fuel to zero carbon energy. A knowledge book on green hydrogen opportunities in India will be released on the first day of the summit. The book has been authored by Dr JP Gupta, Chairman of Kreston SNR Advisory Board, and the Chairman of the Summit with Mahendra Rustagi, CEO of Kreston SNR, also contributing an article on ESG.
The main feature of the summit is to showcase India’s unique position as an attractive destination for the production of green hydrogen due to the availability of renewable energy at the lowest price. This summit will undoubtedly attract interest from investors in this industry, safety companies, hydrogen production companies and R&D labs looking to collaborate with Indian partners for the production of green hydrogen to make India Aatam-Nirbhar (self-reliant).
Norway has been working with hydrogen for the last 125 years and is the front runner in the green hydrogen space today. This is an international event, involving several key territories, including Norway, the European Union, US and Japan.
Also, a delegation of around 100 participants from India and several large companies in the oil sector from Norway and the European Union are participating in the Summit, in person.

At COP 26, held in November 2021, one of the primary decisions was to reduce the global carbon footprint, by phasing out the usage of fossil fuels and increasing the usage of renewable energy. India made commitments at this meeting, including achieving Carbon Neutrality by 2070. The GOI has already issued guidelines for the large corporates (top 1000 companies by market capitalisation) to prepare Business Responsibility and Sustainability reports, effective from the current financial year, 2022-23.
Kreston SNR Advisors have positioned themselves as experts within their sector, promoting awareness of ESG and advising corporates regarding its framework—including policy formulation, implementation and reporting.
In the last year, Kreston SNR has been associated with many programs related to the environment, including International Climate Summit 2021 (New Delhi, Sept 2021) as a knowledge partner. Over 35,000 people participated in the summit, part of which were nine technical sessions by eminent speakers, including a few Nobel laureates. Along with many ministries under the GOI that partnered with the summit, Norway also showed its support as the country partner.
Kreston SNR Advisors has an advisory board with distinguished scientist Dr JP Gupta, as the Chairman, and other experts as members and are in the process of building a strong team with relevant experience to ensure the delivery of quality services.

“In recent years, the world has seen several major events which have caused huge global shifts in trade power. One such event is Brexit. While this development is likely to slow down trade and disrupt supply chain activities between the UK and the EU, it could also lead to hugely beneficial opportunities for countries and businesses in other regions, especially Asia. Brexit, in particular, has made the UK and the EU look to increase trade with other countries.”
Ganesh Ramaswamy’s latest piece discusses the varying impact of Brexit expected to be felt across the Asian continent and how one should make note of the UK’s novel negotiating position in reference to any new or upcoming FTAs with the region.
