  • Indian power producer SJVN Ltd's green energy arm to add 4.5 GW of wind and solar parks for green hydrogen production, partnering with AM Green Ammonia India.

Indian power producer SJVN Ltd's green energy arm plans to add 4.5 GW of wind and solar parks to supply green hydrogen production for AM Green Ammonia India. The companies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding for long-term power off-take, with a definitive agreement expected soon. SJVN Green Energy Ltd will install 2.5-3 GW of solar parks and 1.5-2 GW of wind farms in three phases, providing 11,500 million kWh of green electricity annually to AM Ammonia's green ammonia production site in Andhra Pradesh.

The Kakinada complex will initially produce one million tonnes of green ammonia per year, with plans to reach five million tonnes by 2030. SJVN Green and AM Ammonia aim to establish a commercial framework for competitive tariffs and returns, potentially including a dollar-denominated tariff for contracted green electricity volumes.
