Adani Total Gas Commences Green Hydrogen Blending in Ahmedabad Township
Key Ideas
- Adani Total Gas has initiated green hydrogen blending at 2.2-2.3% in piped natural gas supplies to the Adani Shantigram township in Ahmedabad, benefiting 4,000 consumers with uninterrupted hydrogen-blended natural gas.
- The project includes in-situ hydrogen generation through electrolysis of water using renewable energy, aiming to increase the green hydrogen blend up to 8% with regulatory approvals.
- The International Energy Agency reported a growing global hydrogen demand in 2023, with projections indicating a significant increase in blue and green hydrogen production by 2030, mainly driven by electrolysis projects.
- Other global initiatives in hydrogen technology include Mitsubishi Power supplying a 30% hydrogen co-firing gas turbine in Malaysia, and Yara International opening a new low-emission ammonia import terminal in Germany, contributing to European hydrogen targets.
Adani Total Gas has successfully launched a green hydrogen blending project in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, introducing 2.2-2.3% green hydrogen into piped natural gas supplies for the Adani Shantigram township. This initiative, powered by renewable energy, aims to provide hydrogen-blended natural gas to residential and commercial consumers, with plans to increase the green hydrogen blend to 8% pending regulatory approvals. The move aligns with global trends, highlighted by the International Energy Agency's data showing a rising demand for hydrogen, with a significant shift towards low-emission blue and green hydrogen production projected by 2030. Concurrently, global efforts in hydrogen technology continue to expand, with Mitsubishi Power introducing a hydrogen co-firing gas turbine in Malaysia and Yara International inaugurating a low-emission ammonia import terminal in Germany, contributing to European hydrogen targets.
