Abstract
This study aims to understand how the discourse has evolved around green hydrogen in Indian actors. Through systematic extraction and coding of actor statements in major Indian newspapers, we aim to answer the aforementioned research questions. We aim to map the relationships according to the actors and their respective positions using the discourse network analyser software and uncover patterns of influence to identify both incumbent and marginalized actors. The results of the first stage of the study allowed for a comprehensive examination of how actors and ideas interacted over time, and how this interaction shaped the trajectory of a complex and contested policy domain. The integration of visual, structural, and statistical insights provided a multi-scalar understanding of India's evolving green hydrogen discourse.
