22 May 2024 CW Team

Reliance Industries has signed an agreement with Norway's Nel ASA to advance hydrogen electrolyser technology in India. This partnership aims to develop and install hydrogen electrolysers, which are crucial for producing green hydrogen. The collaboration is part of Reliance's strategy to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2035 and to expand its renewable energy portfolio.

Nel will supply its advanced alkaline electrolysers, leveraging its extensive experience in the hydrogen sector. These electrolysers will be used to generate green hydrogen, which is produced using renewable energy sources, thus reducing carbon emissions. This initiative aligns with global efforts to transition to sustainable energy solutions and combat climate change.

Reliance's commitment to green hydrogen is also in line with India's national hydrogen mission, which seeks to make the country a global hub for hydrogen production and export. The partnership with Nel is expected to boost local manufacturing capabilities and create significant economic and environmental benefits.

The project is anticipated to significantly cut carbon emissions by replacing fossil fuels with green hydrogen in various industrial processes, thereby supporting global climate goals and promoting cleaner energy alternatives.
