Mumbai to Establish Green Hydrogen Units for Sustainable Energy Production
Key Ideas
  • The state cabinet approved the establishment of two green hydrogen production units in Mumbai with a capacity of 10 to 15 KTPA.
  • These units are part of the government's push towards green initiatives and will be selected as anchor units for the region.
  • Green hydrogen, produced through electrolysis, has diverse applications including in fuel cells, electricity storage, and chemical production.
  • The state government's resolution aims to promote green hydrogen projects, defining anchor units as the first three commissioned projects with a capacity of at least 50 KTPA.
The state cabinet in Mumbai recently approved the establishment of two green hydrogen and similar production units with a capacity of 10 to 15 kilo tonnes per annum (KTPA) in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. These units, aimed to promote sustainable energy production, will serve as anchor units in the region according to a government press release. The government's resolution from November 2023 defines anchor units as the first three commissioned green hydrogen and its derivative projects with a capacity of at least 50 KTPA. Green hydrogen, produced through electrolysis, is a versatile energy carrier used in various applications such as fuel cells, electricity storage, chemical and fertilizer production, heating systems, and ammonia production. The move towards green hydrogen aligns with the government's efforts to promote green technologies and sustainable development in the region, marking a significant step towards a more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient future.
