Revolutionizing India's Clean Energy Sector with 4G Ethanol and Green Hydrogen
Key Ideas
- Jakson Green appointed as LEPC partner for world's first project converting flue gas CO2 to 4G ethanol in Chhattisgarh.
- Initiative aims to produce 10 tons per day of 4G Ethanol, capture 25 tons per day of CO2, and generate 3 tons per day of Green Hydrogen.
- Green hydrogen and CO2 will be converted into ethanol using advanced microbial fermentation technology.
- Project highlights importance of increasing ethanol production for India's blending goals and energy security, contributing to a sustainable future.
In a significant advancement for India's clean energy sector, Jakson Green has been selected as the Licensing, Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (LEPC) partner for a pioneering project in Lara, Chhattisgarh. The project, developed by NETRA, aims to convert flue gas CO2 to 4G ethanol and is set to be operational within two years. It plans to produce 10 tons per day of ethanol while capturing 25 tons per day of CO2 and generating 3 tons per day of Green Hydrogen through a 7.5 MW Electrolyser. The captured CO2 and hydrogen will be transformed into ethanol using advanced microbial fermentation technology. Jakson Green's Joint Managing Director expressed pride in the partnership, emphasizing the project's significance in achieving India's blending targets and enhancing energy security. The initiative not only marks a milestone in clean energy production but also positions Jakson Green as a key player in India's green molecule space with substantial green hydrogen production capacity. This project signifies a major step towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future, showcasing a commitment to revolutionizing the power-to-X mission and contributing to a cleaner energy landscape.
