Apave India Achieves Major Milestone: Wins “Excellence in Hydrogen Safety” Award, Expands Role in India’s Green Hydrogen Ecosystem
Leadership in Safety: Apave on the IHFC-2025 Expert Panel
Apave’s technical leadership was further highlighted by the participation of Nilay Ball, Country Manager for India, who served as an expert panelist for the session: "Hydrogen Infrastructure: Storage, Transport & Safety Excellence."
Mr. Ball joined industry pioneers to discuss essential safety frameworks and robust regulatory compliance necessary to scale India’s ambitious Green Hydrogen Mission.
This recognition validates our commitment to making safety the foundation of every hydrogen project. As India scales its hydrogen infrastructure, we're here to ensure that ambition is matched by world-class safety standards.
Why Hydrogen Needs a Safety-First Partner?
Hydrogen is a major asset in the energy transition, but it is an energy carrier, not a fuel source, meaning it must be produced, stored, transported, and handled with extreme precision.
As the region rapidly shifts toward decarbonized hydrogen through electrolysis, the specific risks (human, technical, and environmental) are intensifying. Apave's mission is to be the Trusted Third Party that ensures safety and security throughout the hydrogen lifecycle.

India's Hydrogen Future
"India's National Green Hydrogen Mission targets 5 million tonnes of annual production by 2030, positioning the country as a global hydrogen hub," Ball explained. "As the nation invests in electrolyzer manufacturing and renewable energy capacity, robust safety frameworks become non-negotiable. India's hydrogen ambitions are achievable—but only with safety at the forefront. Our role is to ensure that every facility, every piece of equipment, and every operator is protected by world-class standards as India scales up."
