India’s state-run oil and gas companies are targeting to build a combined green hydrogen generation capacity of 38,000 tonnes per annum by the next financial year, according to a government panel report.
The planned green hydrogen facilities would require setting up a combined electrolyzer capacity of 279 MW by 2024-25, according to the energy transition advisory committee of the petroleum ministry. Of this, Hindustan Petroleum is planning to have 115 MW capacity at its refineries in Visakhapatnam and Barmer. Gas pipeline operator GAIL is targeting a capacity of 60 MW while Indian Oil, the nation’s largest refiner, aims to develop a capacity of 56 MW at its Mathura and Panipat refineries.
