Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals, based in India, has commenced the process of accepting bids for the construction, ownership, and operation of a green hydrogen production plant. The plant is intended to supply 10 kilotons per annum (ktpa) of green hydrogen on a build-own-operate basis. They aim to forge a 25-year gas purchase agreement with the selected bidder, who will be tasked with the complete lifecycle of the unit, including design, financing, testing, commissioning, ownership, operation, and maintenance. The green hydrogen plant must operate continuously during the refinery's on-stream days, with its functioning aligned to the refinery's turnaround/shutdown periods. It is mandated that the plant utilizes water electrolysis technology and renewable energy sources for uninterrupted operation. Furthermore, the Solar Energy Corp. of India (SECI) is gearing up to release a second tender for the establishment of production facilities capable of generating 450,000 metric tons per annum (mtpa) of green hydrogen and its related products within India as part of the SIGHT Scheme. This upcoming tender is expected to be issued in the near future, indicating a growing emphasis on green hydrogen initiatives in the country's energy sector.
