Reliance's Partnership with Nel ASA to Propel Green Hydrogen Production in India
Key Ideas
  • Reliance Industries Ltd. has secured an exclusive license for Nel's alkaline electrolysers in India, accelerating its green energy investments, including the production of green hydrogen.
  • The technology partnership with Nel ASA will aid Reliance in its ambition to decarbonize its portfolio and build an integrated energy vertical.
  • Reliance's commitment to becoming a net zero carbon emission company by 2035 aligns with its plans to produce 100 gigawatts of renewable energy by the end of the decade, contributing significantly to India's non-fossil capacity targets.
Reliance Industries Ltd. has entered into a technology licensing agreement with Norway's Nel ASA, granting the company an exclusive license for Nel's alkaline electrolysers in India. This partnership is poised to accelerate Reliance's new energy investments, particularly in the production of green hydrogen, as part of billionaire Mukesh Ambani's shift towards green energy. The agreement allows Reliance to manufacture Nel's alkaline electrolysers for captive purposes globally, facilitating the company's goal to build an integrated energy vertical and drive decarbonization efforts. Nel ASA, with a significant global market share in electrolysers, stands to benefit from a new revenue stream in India through this collaboration. Ambani's commitment to invest USD 75 billion in renewables infrastructure, including green hydrogen production, underscores the importance of green hydrogen in achieving emission reduction goals. Reliance's plan to be a net zero carbon emission company by 2035 includes targetting 100 gigawatts of renewable energy generation by the end of the decade, aligning with India's renewable energy targets. Through access to Nel's technology platform, Reliance aims to play a pivotal role in India's green energy revolution, supporting the nation's transition towards a sustainable energy future.
