This initiative was in response to Hon Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s announcement of ‘National Hydrogen Mission’ from the ramparts of Red Fort on August 15, 2021. The proton exchange membrane (PEM) hydrogen electrolyzer is at the heart of production of Green Hydrogen as it uses power generated from renewable resources to break water into hydrogen and oxygen.
While a number of corporates have announced plans to produce green hydrogen, the manufacture of electrolyzer by Ohmium will ensure availability of end-to-end solution within the country and cut down dependence on imports for this key equipment. The company aims to become a pioneer in enabling the production of Green Hydrogen in India, thereby making the nation ‘AatmaNirbhar’ in clean energy.
Green Hydrogen, which is the pollution-free fuel of the future, is industry agnostic and will facilitate India’s transition to clean energy. With zero carbon footprint, the green hydrogen can be utilized for fertilizer production, refinery processing, steel production, conventional vehicle transportation with methanol blending, and direct hydrogen transportation in fuel-cell based vehicles. Green Hydrogen can also be stored and transported.
Arne Ballantine, CEO & Co-Founder, Ohmium, said that, Ohmium has developed technology which can be both distributed and scaled-up and consists of modular, high performance and high value products. She added that, the Gigafactory has a capacity of manufacturing approximately ½ GW per year but, they can quickly expand that to 2 GW per year.
Ohmium International enables industries to deploy green hydrogen for a sustainable future. Ohmium is headquartered in the United States with manufacturing in India and operations around the world.
