Adani Group commissions India's first off-grid green hydrogen pilot plant in Gujarat

An off-grid green hydrogen plant is a facility that produces hydrogen using electrolysis powered by renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind, and is not connected to the main electrical grid.

This means the plant relies entirely on its own renewable energy generation for the hydrogen production process.

Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant element in the universe. It is also the cleanest form of energy, producing just water vapour when burnt.

The 5-MW plant has been built by Adani New Industries Limited (ANIL) - the clean energy unit under the group's flagship firm Adani Enterprises Ltd.

Calling it a key milestone towards enabling India's National Green Hydrogen Mission, the group said the successful commissioning demonstrates technical feasibility and sets a benchmark for off-grid, renewable-powered industrial applications of green hydrogen and its derivatives in emissions-intensive sectors.
