GAIL (India) Ltd, is preparing to commission the country's first green hydrogen project in the coming weeks.

This pioneering initiative is slated to commence operations at GAIL's Vijaipur complex in Madhya Pradesh by April.

The project comprises a 10-megawatt proton exchange membrane electrolyser imported from Canada for the production of green hydrogen.

The report added that once operational, the unit is expected to produce approximately 4.3 metric tons of hydrogen per day, boasting a purity level of 99.999% by volume.

The green hydrogen production unit will rely on renewable power sources, aligning with India's ambitious goal of reaching 5 million tons of annual green hydrogen production capacity by 2030.
