Pilot-scale green hydrogen project aims to produce 90 Nm³/hour of green hydrogen; expects carbon emission reduction of 2,700 tons.
Here’s an article posted in Livemint that talks about the dominance of Jindal Stainless over Green Hydrogen in India’s steel industry.
According to the article,
- Jindal Stainless is embracing green hydrogen for sustainable production
- Pilot project in Hisar to go live by December 2023
- Green hydrogen plant planned for Odisha facility
- India’s favorable position for green hydrogen production
Several Indian corporates have expressed interest in diversifying into green hydrogen. Here are a few notable ones:
- NTPC
- NTPC, India’s largest integrated energy company, has awarded a project for a standalone fuel-cell-based microgrid with hydrogen production using an electrolyzer at NTPC Simhadri in Andhra Pradesh.
- This project is India’s first Green Hydrogen-based Energy Storage Project and one of the world’s largest.
- The project utilizes an advanced 240 kW Solid Oxide Electrolyzer to produce hydrogen.
- Indian Oil Corporation
- IOC plans to build a green hydrogen plant at its 160,000 barrels per day (bpd) Mathura refinery in Uttar Pradesh.
- The plant will produce green hydrogen through electrolysis, utilizing wind power generated in Rajasthan and transmitted to Mathura
- IOC has also signed a binding term sheet to form a joint venture along with Larsen & Toubro (L&T) and ReNew Power, to develop the green hydrogen sector in India
