Jakson Green to Establish World's First Flue Gas CO2 to 4G Ethanol Project in India
Key Ideas
- NTPC's Lara super thermal power station in Chhattisgarh will host the world's first flue gas CO2 to 4G ethanol project by Jakson Green.
- The project aims to produce 10 tons of 4G Ethanol per day by capturing 25 tpd CO2 from waste flue gas and generating 3 tpd green hydrogen through electrolysis.
- Jakson Green's initiative significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions, supports India's blending goals, and contributes to a cleaner and more sustainable future.
- The project is set to start operations within two years and is a milestone in the energy transition towards renewable and environmentally friendly solutions.
Jakson Green has secured an order from NTPC to establish the world's first flue gas CO2 to 4G ethanol project at NTPC's Lara super thermal power station in Chhattisgarh, India. The project, conceptualized by NETRA, aims to synthesize 10 tons of 4G Ethanol per day by capturing 25 tons of CO2 from waste flue gas and generating 3 tons of green hydrogen daily through electrolysis. This initiative, executed by Jakson Green as the engineering partner, utilizes advanced technologies from Veolia Carbon Clean and LanzaTech Inc. to convert CO2 and H2 into ethanol, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and supporting India's energy security and sustainability goals. Kannan Krishnan, joint managing director of Jakson Green, highlighted the importance of increasing ethanol production for a cleaner future. Jakson Green, under the leadership of Bikesh Ogra, aims to be a key player in the energy transition sector, with plans to deliver 15 GW by 2030. The firm's focus on green technology, hydrogen generation, and sustainability aligns with global efforts towards a greener and more sustainable energy landscape.
