Ltd.’s Simhadri plant in Andhra Pradesh.
At NTPC Simhadri, NTPC will work on a project called “Standalone Fuel-cell based Microgrid with hydrogen production using electrolyzer.”
In addition, as part of its Energy Security strategy, India plans to invite bids for the construction of 4 gigawatts (GW) of electrolyzer capacity.
This project will serve as a testbed for large-scale hydrogen energy storage systems. Multiple microgrids will also be studied and deployed in numerous off-grid and key places in India.
