Oswal Greenzo Energies has been awarded a 5 MW green hydrogen project at Deendayal Port, Kandla, under India's Sagarmala Initiative. The project, executed on an EPC basis, includes future expansion potential up to 10 MW. The plant is expected to produce 800 tonnes of green hydrogen annually, supporting clean energy use in port operations and mobility. The initiative aligns with the National Green Hydrogen Mission's efforts to reduce emissions in the maritime sector and establish green hydrogen hubs, targeting a transition to green vessels by 2047.
Oswal Greenzo Energies announced that it has won a 5 megawatt green hydrogen project at Deendayal Port in Kandla, Gujarat, under the government's Sagarmala Initiative. The project will be executed on an EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) basis, with provisions to expand the capacity up to 10 MW using shared infrastructure in the future. Advertisement
The contract covers the design, supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of the 5 MW green hydrogen facility. Once operational, the plant is expected to produce around 800 tonnes of green hydrogen annually. This output will support clean energy use within port operations and extend to the mobility sector, aiding India's transition toward sustainable fuel alternatives.
Kushal Agarwal, Executive Director of Greenzo Energy, highlighted that deploying green hydrogen at this scale within a port ecosystem illustrates the practical integration of clean hydrogen into mission-critical, high-throughput infrastructure. Oswal Greenzo Energies is a joint venture between clean-tech company Greenzo Energy India and EPC solutions provider Oswal Energies.
Green hydrogen is generated using renewable sources such as solar or wind power rather than fossil fuels. The production process involves splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen through electrolysis powered by electricity from renewable sources. It can also be produced from biomass like agricultural waste, provided emissions remain below regulated limits.
India's National Green Hydrogen Mission (NGHM) has been promoting green hydrogen adoption in the maritime sector through pilot projects that include retrofitting ships, developing port-based bunkering and refuelling infrastructure, and establishing green hydrogen hubs at Kandla, Tuticorin (VoC Port), and Paradip. The mission aims to reduce carbon emissions substantially, with a long-term goal of transitioning to green vessels by 2047.
