IndianOil finalises India's largest Green Hydrogen project at Panipat
New Delhi [India], May 31 (ANI): In a major step towards promoting clean energy in India, IndianOil has finalised the Levelized Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH) for setting up a 10,000 Tonnes Per Annum Green Hydrogen Generation Unit at its Panipat Refinery & Petrochemical Complex.
This project marks IndianOil's entry into the green hydrogen sector and will be the largest green hydrogen initiative in India to date.
The company in a statement on Friday, stated that 'Slated for commissioning by December 2027, the Green Hydrogen produced will replace fossil-derived Hydrogen in refinery operations, resulting in substantial reduction in Carbon emissions'.
The plant is expected to be commissioned by December 2027. The green hydrogen produced at this facility will replace the fossil-fuel-based hydrogen currently used in the refinery's operations.
This transition is expected to significantly cut down carbon emissions, helping IndianOil move towards a more sustainable and environment-friendly model.
The company also added that this initiative is in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision under the National Green Hydrogen Mission and forms a critical part of IndianOil's larger decarbonization strategy.
The project also supports the company's Net Zero target and demonstrates its commitment to leading India's shift towards a cleaner and greener energy future.
Earlier, Arvinder Singh Sahney, Chairman of IOC, during an exclusive conversation with ANI at the World Economic Forum 2025 in Davos, Switzerland, stated that the plant, with a production capacity of 10,000 tons per annum, had made substantial progress.
'Green hydrogen plant is now alive. We have got very good bids for it. And now the tenders are under evaluation. And within a month or so, we will be able to award the job, and within two years, that green hydrogen, the 10,000 tons per annum plant at Panipat (Haryana) will be commissioned' he said.
The plant aims to bolster India's green energy mission, contributing to a sustainable and carbon-neutral future.
With this landmark project, IndianOil further strengthens its leadership in the country's energy transformation journey. (ANI)

Air India In Talks With Airbus, Boeing For Major Aircraft Deal: Report
Talks are underway between Tata Group's Air India and two aircraft manufacturers, Airbus and Boeing, for a major aircraft deal, including some 200 extra single-aisle planes. This is being touted as a deal significant enough to surpass the mammoth deal of 2023. This development comes as the Indian carrier pursues a multi-billion revamp, news agency Reuters, citing industry sources, reported. Word of a potential new significant deal from India's flag carrier emerged as global airline bosses converged in the world's fastest-growing aviation market for an industry summit to be addressed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday.

Air India in talks with Boeing, Airbus for ‘major' 200 narrow-body aircraft order: Report
NEW DELHI (Reuters) -Tata Group's Air India is in talks with Airbus and Boeing for a major new aircraft order including some 200 extra single-aisle planes, topping up a mammoth deal in 2023 as the former state carrier pursues a multi-billion revamp, industry sources said. The order discussions, which two of the sources said could involve hundreds of airplanes in total spread across various sizes, expand on previously reported discussions for a further batch of large wide-body aircraft, they told Reuters. Air India, Boeing and Airbus all declined comment. Word of a potential new blockbuster order from India's flag carrier emerged as global airline bosses gathered in the world's fastest-growing aviation market for an industry summit to be addressed by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday. Air India placed a then-record order for 470 planes from both suppliers in 2023 and another 100 Airbus jets last year. The back-to-back plane orders come at a time when aircraft manufacturers are scrambling with supply chain issues leading to severe delays in aircraft delivery and a looming jet shortage. Getting new planes is crucial for Air India, which has suffered from years of under-investment under government ownership and is now undertaking an ambitious modernisation plan to recapture market share lost to global rivals. The exact number of narrowbody jets under the new order was not immediately clear but two sources put it in the hundreds and one said it involved a provisional total of 200 narrow-body planes, which are the workhorse of aviation fleets worldwide.
