JSW Energy commissions India's largest green hydrogen plant

JSW Energy Limited has commissioned its first green hydrogen manufacturing plant, also India's largest, at the JSW Steel facility in Vijayanagar, Karnataka. This project, part of the Production Linked Incentive Scheme - Tranche I, will supply 3,800 tons per annum (TPA) of green hydrogen and 30,000 TPA of green oxygen to JSW Steel for low-carbon steel production under a seven-year offtake agreement.

The plant's green hydrogen supply is part of JSW Energy's 6,800 TPA allocation under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition ("SIGHT") program. The company also has a Memorandum of Understanding with JSW Steel Ltd to progressively supply 85,000–90,000 TPA of green hydrogen and 720,000 TPA of green oxygen by 2030, aligning with India's green hydrogen plan of approximately 5 MTPA by 2030.

JSW Energy currently has a total locked-in generation capacity of 30.5 GW and aims to reach 30 GW generation capacity and 40 GWh of energy storage capacity by FY 2030, with a goal of achieving Carbon Neutrality by 2050.
