It is the first Indian project for green hydrogen in Thyssenkrupp Nucera's portfolio. As part of the FEED study, the company is to develop an integration concept for alkaline water electrolysis (AWE) into a planned plant for the production of green ammonia. The client is the Indian company Juno Joule, which is developing the project together with Select Energy.
Green ammonia to be exported to Europe
The planned plant is to have an installed electrolysis capacity of 260 MW. The green hydrogen produced is to be further processed on site into green ammonia, which meets the requirements of the European regulation for renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO). The ammonia is primarily to be exported to Europe. The plant is to use renewable energy from a combination of solar, wind, and hydropower.
Investment decision expected for fiscal year 26/27
After the completion of the FEED phase, Thyssenkrupp Nucera and Juno Joule intend to further develop the project. The aim is to conclude a contract for Engineering, Procurement, and Fabrication (EPF) in the next phase, according to Thyssenkrupp Nucera. Implementation is subject to a final investment decision (FID), which is expected for fiscal year 26/27 according to the company.
Thyssenkrupp Nucera expands commitment in India
The company had already entered into a partnership with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) in February to advance the development of markets for green hydrogen and Power-to-X in India. The cooperation is intended to combine international development cooperation and technological know-how from the private sector.
