Key Ideas
- Adani Enterprises Ltd., Adani Ports, and Ambuja Cements have partnered with the World Economic Forum to drive economic growth, employment generation, and decarbonisation by 2050.
- The 'Adani Mundra Cluster' plans to establish the lowest-emission-intensity cement production facility globally and become a prominent green hydrogen hub in South Asia.
- The cluster aims to achieve net zero emissions by 2040, with a planned capacity of 1-3 million metric tonnes per annum of green hydrogen production by 2040, along with facilities for green hydrogen derivatives like ammonia.
- The initiative will enable collaboration with global industry peers and experts, promoting innovative approaches towards decarbonisation and reducing dependency on energy imports in India.
Adani New Industries Ltd., Adani Ports, and Ambuja Cements have recently joined the 'Transitioning Industrial Clusters' initiative led by the World Economic Forum. The goal of this collaboration, as stated in a press release from Adani Enterprises Ltd., is to enhance cooperation among co-located companies to drive economic growth, create jobs, and advance decarbonisation efforts by 2050. These companies collectively form the 'Adani Mundra Cluster' and are working towards establishing a low-emission cement production facility and a green hydrogen hub in Mundra, India. Their ambition extends to achieving net zero emissions by 2050 and contributing towards decarbonising challenging sectors of the Indian economy. The cluster's plans include a significant capacity for green hydrogen production, supported by renewable energy sources like solar modules, wind turbines, and electrolyser manufacturing. Adani Mundra aims to become a leader in green hydrogen production and reduce the country's reliance on energy imports. The initiative also focuses on producing green hydrogen derivatives and committing to sustainable practices, such as powering port operations with renewable electricity. Joining the international community of industrial clusters, the Adani Mundra Cluster seeks to exchange knowledge and drive the energy transition in collaboration with global peers. The cluster's efforts align with the vision of the World Economic Forum to foster innovation, sustainability, and decarbonisation in industrial development.
