NTPC has awarded a contract to Technip Energies for the Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Commissioning (EPCC) of a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Based Hydrogen Generation Plant in Vindhyachal, Madhya Pradesh, India. The EPCC contract calls for the delivery of a 5 MW Hydrogen Generation Plant at a Super Thermal Power Station employing Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Electrolysis technology. This concept is well-suited for a large-scale green hydrogen production facility, as the electricity used to operate the electrolyzer can be replaced in the future with renewable energy. NTPC is constructing this plant in conjunction with two other units: a CO2 capture…
