Jakson Green, a new energy transition platform, has secured an order from NTPC to set up India's first flue gas CO2-to-4G ethanol plant in Lara, Chhattisgarh. The plant will produce 10 tonnes per day of 4G ethanol from flue gases, while capturing 25 TPD CO2 using Veolia Carbon Clean technology. Additionally, 3 tonnes per day of green hydrogen will be generated through a 7.5 MW electrolyser. The project, led by Jakson Green, aims to convert the captured CO2 and hydrogen into 4G ethanol using advanced microbial fermentation technology from LanzaTech Inc. With a focus on sustainable development, the plant is a crucial step towards India's green energy goals, aiming to enhance energy security and contribute to a cleaner future. Kannan Krishnan, Joint Managing Director of Jakson Green, expressed the importance of increasing ethanol production to meet India's blending targets and ensure energy security. The project, expected to commence operations within two years, signifies a significant milestone in India's clean energy transition, with a production capacity of over 8,500 tonnes per annum of green hydrogen and derivatives across multiple projects.
