Transmission Schemes to Power Green Hydrogen Plants in Gujarat
Key Ideas
  • Two ISTS schemes in Gujarat aim to feed energy to upcoming green hydrogen and ammonia plants, totaling 12 GW capacity.
  • Schemes include new substations for Kandla and Mundra regions to meet energy demands from major companies like Adani and Greenko Group.
  • Transmission infrastructure to be completed in 24 months with an estimated cost of Rs.9,200 crore, supporting India's green hydrogen mission.
  • Further infrastructure expansions are planned to meet the growing energy demands of 22 GW by FY29 and FY30 for green hydrogen/ammonia capacities.
The National Committee on Transmission (NCT) is set to discuss two major interstate transmission system (ISTS) schemes that will provide energy to upcoming green hydrogen and green ammonia plants in Gujarat. These schemes are designed to transfer nearly 12 GW of green energy to the Kandla and Mundra regions, addressing the energy needs of various companies like Greenko Group, Renew Power, Welspun Group, and Adani New Industries Ltd. The transmission infrastructure, estimated to cost Rs.9,200 crore, will include new substations in both regions to meet the electricity demand of 2.465 GW in Kandla and 11 GW in Mundra. The schemes are expected to be completed in 24 months and will play a crucial role in supporting India's transition to green hydrogen and green ammonia. Additionally, future expansions are planned to accommodate the increasing energy requirements, with a projected growth of 22 GW by FY29 and FY30 for green hydrogen/ammonia capacities in the Kandla and Mundra areas.
