Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Inaugurates Pioneering Green Hydrogen Plant in Tirupati
Key Ideas
  • Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister inaugurated a Rs 1,000-crore green hydrogen plant in Tirupati, blending green hydrogen with Piped Natural Gas (PNG) and Liquefied Natural Gas (LPG) for industrial heating.
  • The plant is equipped with a 300 kW PEM electrolyser powered by a 1.1 MWp rooftop solar plant, with an annual green hydrogen output of 25 TPA, expandable up to 54 TPA, and is expected to reduce 206 TPA of Carbon Dioxide emissions.
  • The project is hailed as a significant breakthrough in industrial decarbonization, setting a new benchmark for India's clean energy transition and offering a blueprint for other industries to adopt hydrogen-based solutions.
  • Andhra Pradesh aims to become a global hub for green hydrogen exports, aligning with the SwarnaAndhra@2047 vision and Integrated Clean Energy Policy - 2024 to add over 160 GW of renewable energy capacity and attract investments worth up to USD 119 billion.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu virtually inaugurated the Hero Future Energies' (HFE) Rs 1,000-crore green hydrogen plant at Rockman Industries in Tirupati. This pioneering project blends green hydrogen with Piped Natural Gas (PNG) and Liquefied Natural Gas (LPG) for industrial heating. The plant, equipped with a 300 kW PEM electrolyser powered by a 1.1 MWp rooftop solar plant, can blend green hydrogen up to 10 per cent in LPG and three per cent in PNG. With an annual green hydrogen output of 25 TPA, expandable up to 54 TPA, it is expected to significantly reduce Carbon Dioxide emissions. The project is seen as a breakthrough in industrial decarbonization, showcasing scalable and sustainable solutions. Andhra Pradesh aims to lead India's green energy revolution, with the vision of becoming a global hub for green hydrogen exports through its Integrated Clean Energy Policy - 2024, targeting over 160 GW of renewable energy capacity and attracting investments worth up to USD 119 billion.
