First ‘Make in India' 1-MW green hydrogen plant commissioned in Gujarat
Rajkot: Deendayal Port Authority (DPA) on Thursday commissioned the country's first 'Make in India' one megawatt (MW) green hydrogen plant, at Kandla. This is the first phase of a planned 10MW facility and is the first such development at an Indian port. Union shipping minister Sarbananda Sonowal inaugurated the plant, calling it a "new benchmark" in the execution of green hydrogen projects. "DPA has demonstrated a shining example of speed, scale and skill," he said. The plant was set up in four months and is fully indigenous. The electrolyzer used to produce the hydrogen is made in India, and the entire project was led by Indian engineers. The green hydrogen generated will initially power 11 buses and street lighting within the port. Over time, DPA aims to use it to fuel all the resources of the port. DPA chairman S K Singh told TOI, "Another 5MW will be added by the end of this fiscal year, with the full 10MW facility expected to be operational by the middle of the next fiscal year." "DPA becomes the first port in India to operationalize a Make-In-India green hydrogen facility of this scale, capable of producing approximately 140 metric tonnes of green hydrogen annually. This breakthrough marks a pivotal step in maritime decarbonization , enhancing India's global leadership in sustainable port operations," DPA said in a statement. Green hydrogen has many applications such as fuel for power plants, vehicles, tugs and vessels. The foundation stone for the plant was laid by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on May 26 during his visit to Bhuj.
