In India, BioEnergy Times reported that JSW Energy Limited has commissioned its first green hydrogen manufacturing plant, which is under the Production Linked Incentive Scheme – Tranche I. Strategically located adjacent to the JSW Steel facility at Vijayanagar, Karnataka, the plant will supply green hydrogen directly to the DRI unit for low-carbon steel production.
Under a seven-year offtake agreement with JSW Steel Ltd, the plant will supply 3,800 tons per annum (TPA) of green hydrogen, along with green oxygen of 30,000 TPA.
This forms part of the Company’s 6,800 TPA allocation under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) program by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI).
