Adani Group Launches India's First Off-Grid 5 MW Green Hydrogen Pilot Plant in Gujarat
Key Ideas
  • Adani Group commissions India's first off-grid 5 MW green hydrogen pilot plant in Kutch, Gujarat, powered by solar energy and integrated with a Battery Energy Storage System.
  • The plant sets a benchmark for renewable-powered industrial applications and demonstrates technical feasibility towards enabling India's National Green Hydrogen Mission.
  • The initiative aligns with India's vision for a low-carbon future, contributing to decarbonizing sectors like fertilizers, refining, and heavy transport, supporting global net-zero targets.
The Adani Group has successfully commissioned India's first off-grid 5 megawatt green hydrogen pilot plant in Kutch, Gujarat. This facility, powered entirely by renewable energy sources like solar, marks a significant milestone towards India's National Green Hydrogen Mission. The 5 MW plant, developed by Adani New Industries Limited (ANIL), operates independently from the main electrical grid, relying on its own solar energy generation for hydrogen production. This innovative plant is 100% green-powered and includes a Battery Energy Storage System for off-grid operation. Adani Group's pilot plant showcases the feasibility and benchmark for off-grid, renewable-powered industrial applications of green hydrogen. Green hydrogen, produced via electrolysis using renewable sources, is a key focus for ANIL, aiming to develop large-scale production facilities for green hydrogen and its derivatives like green ammonia and methanol. The pilot plant's closed-loop electrolyser system offers operational flexibility, especially in managing solar power variability. Furthermore, this initiative supports India's ambition to become a global green hydrogen production hub, contributing to sectors like fertilizers, refining, and heavy transport decarbonisation. The project aligns with India's National Green Hydrogen Mission and Atmanirbhar Bharat vision, emphasizing self-sufficiency and energy decarbonization. The upcoming Green Hydrogen Hub in Mundra, Gujarat, is a key project that will further advance India's low-carbon future and global net-zero goals.
