NTPC's Green Hydrogen Hub: Pioneering India's Transmission Network for Green Energy
Key Ideas
  • NTPC Green Energy Ltd is investing ₹30,000 crore to establish India's first dedicated transmission network for a 20 GW green hydrogen project in Andhra Pradesh.
  • The network will link a solar power facility in Anantapur with the hydrogen hub in Pudimadaka, expected to produce 1,500 tons of green hydrogen daily.
  • The project aligns with India's goal of achieving 500 GW of green energy capacity by 2030, requiring a total investment of ₹1 trillion in green energy generation and infrastructure.
  • Collaborations with international partners like Japan's Toyo Engineering Corp. and Norway's Getek AS are being pursued to market green hydrogen from the hub.
NTPC Green Energy Ltd is embarking on a groundbreaking initiative to establish India's first dedicated transmission network for a 20 GW green hydrogen project in Andhra Pradesh. With an investment of ₹30,000 crore, the network will support the company's green hydrogen hub in Pudimadaka, expected to produce 1,500 tons of green hydrogen daily. Green hydrogen, a clean fuel produced using renewable energy, has substantial industrial applications, including in refineries and steel manufacturing. NTPC plans to swiftly construct the transmission network to be operational by 2032, supporting India's target of 500 GW green energy capacity by the same year. Strategic partnerships with international firms like Toyo Engineering Corp. and Getek AS aim to market the green hydrogen. The project signifies a significant milestone in India's energy landscape, emphasizing the importance of transmission infrastructure in achieving renewable energy goals.
