Jindal Stainless (JSL) has partnered with Hygenco India to set up a green hydrogen plant. With this factory, JSL can reduce its CO2 emissions by almost 2,700 tons per year.
Hygenco is a company backed by Vivaan Solar, a leading developer of solar energy and an Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) player in the field of renewable energy.
“With this development, it will become the first stainless steel company in India to install a green hydrogen plant,” the company said.
According to JSL, it reduced CO2 emissions by 3,100 metric tons in 2021-22, and initiated a switch from a thermal energy-intensive production setup to renewable energy alternatives such as solar and wind.
