NTPC is India’s major power manufacturer, has declared its plan to construct a green hydrogen hub in coastal Andhra Pradesh with an allocation of budget over INR 1 lakh crore.
The project will consist of setting up of 13.4 GW of solar power and 6.6 GW of pumped storage capacity, which will be optimised for green hydrogen through electrolysis.
The renewable power capacity, comprising storage, will be an overall of 20 GW, and the project is anticipated to be accomplished by 2030, with the half of the majority part will be by the year 2026-27.
The area reserved for the project is spanned more than 1,200 acres, which will be separated into two areas of 600 acres each and will add aspect of an industrial and a hydrogen hub.
The industrial sites will have producing facilities for new energy technologies, including electrolysers, fuel cells, batteries, solar wafers, solar modules, wind turbine equipment, and carbon capture systems.
The reason for creating the hub is to concentrate on exports in South Asia, specifically for green hydrogen and green methanol.
The land site at Pudimadaka, a coastal village about 50 km from Visakhapatnam, has been allocated by the AP Industrial Investment Corporation (APIIC).
Under the project, NTPC’s developing way to bolster the renewable business into green energy pertaining the future growth opportunities in clean energy transition.
NTPC has transferred all its green energy projects to NTPC Green Energy (NGEL).
Moreover, NTPC’s green hydrogen hub in Andhra Pradesh is a crucial progress in the renewable energy sector in India.
The project intends to facilitate a vital promotion to the country’s green energy economy and will assist India fulfil its COP26 commitments.
