GreenH Electrolysis, a joint venture between H2B2 Electrolysis Technologies and GR Promoter Group, today announced it has entered into a contract with Hyderabad-based Medha Servo Drives to build a Hydrogen production and refueling station in Jind, Haryana, to supply Hydrogen for India\u2019s first Hydrogen train for Indian Railways.<\/p>\n
Indian Railways plans to operate thirty-five hydrogen trains as part of the \u201cHydrogen for Heritage” initiative. The first of these hydrogen-fueled trains will run between Jind and Sonipat and will be flagged off next year, marking India\u2019s entry into the league of countries that are actively investing in cutting-edge technologies to transform the transport sector.<\/p>\n
Indian Railways has awarded a contract to Medha for a pilot project to retrofit Diesel Electric Multiple Unit rake, on the Sonipat-Jind section, from diesel to a hydrogen-powered train, as a first step to achieving India Railways\u2019 net zero emissions goal. In turn, Medha has contracted GreenH to provide the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) of a Hydrogen production and refueling station for the project.<\/p>\n
“GreenH will provide the necessary equipment from its newly constructed PEM electrolyzer manufacturing plant in Jhajjar District, Haryana. The Hydrogen production and refueling station is expected to deploy a comprehensive system to both produce Hydrogen and refuel the trains on a daily basis,” the company said in a statement.<\/p>\n
To achieve the first stage, a 1 MW electrolyzer, supplied by GreenH, will operate round the clock with an expected capacity of 420 kg\/day of hydrogen. The refueling infrastructure is expected to integrate 3,000 kg hydrogen storage, hydrogen compressors, and two hydrogen dispensers with pre-cooler integration, allowing for quick refueling of the trains, being adapted to their daily routes.<\/p>\n
The Hydrogen production and refueling station is expected to be a turn-key solution, comprising the technical disciplines (process, electrical, instrumentation and control, safety, etc.), and providing full support to the end user through a Long-term Service Agreement for operation and maintenance purposes.<\/p>\n
Dhiman Roy, CEO and Director, GreenH Electrolysis said: \u201cWe are delighted to be a part of this prestigious Indian Railways project that has the potential to revolutionize our country\u2019s lifeline and decarbonise the transport sector.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
