Oriana Power, a NSE-listed renewable energy company based in Mumbai, is embarking on an ambitious plan to venture into the green hydrogen and e-fuels industry. The company intends to establish a one gigawatt electrolyser factory at a cost of $60 million, with the first phase of 500 MW expected to be operational by 2026. Anirudh Saraswat, the co-founder, highlighted that this factory will manufacture electrolysers and complete balance of plant (BOP) components for the hydrogen ecosystem. In addition to the electrolyser factory, Oriana Power is focusing on e-fuels projects to enhance India's energy security. They are progressing with an e-methanol project in Uttar Pradesh with a capacity of 225 tonnes per day, set to commence by the end of 2025.

The company has identified land for both projects and is in the final stages of discussions. To support its expansion plans, Oriana Power is preparing for an equity raise in the coming months. The firm's strategic roadmap aims to position their green hydrogen and e-fuels businesses for revenue generation starting from the next financial year, with significant contributions expected by FY27. This move signifies Oriana Power's commitment to sustainable energy solutions and its proactive approach towards driving the adoption of green technologies in the Indian energy landscape.
