The project will be developed in collaboration with India's leading power generation company and is considered a milestone in the country's efforts toward green hydrogen. Gensol and Matrix, backed by common promoters, plan to continue their joint efforts in the Green Hydrogen sector, with future ventures into Green Steel and Green Ammonia.
