INOX Air Opens First Green Hydrogen Plant in Rajasthan

INOX Air Products has commissioned its first green hydrogen manufacturing plant at Asahi India Glass Limited’s (AIS) greenfield float glass facility in Soniyana, Chittorgarh, Rajasthan, the company announced on 28 March.

AIS has entered a 20-year offtake agreement with INOXAP for the supply of green hydrogen to this facility. Powered by solar energy, the plant will produce up to 190 tonnes of green hydrogen annually through electrolysis, the companies said in a joint statement. INOXAP will handle the plant’s design, engineering, installation, operations, and ensure a consistent supply of hydrogen to AIS over the 20-year term.

AIS has also invested in a solar power plant to generate renewable energy, which will be used for the electrolysis process. The green hydrogen will then be utilised in the float glass manufacturing process.

In the first phase, 95 tonnes per annum of green hydrogen will be delivered to the AIS facility. The high-quality float glass produced at the site will serve automotive and architectural sectors, in collaboration with AGC Europe.
