Uttar Pradesh marked a significant milestone in India’s clean energy journey with the inauguration of its first Green Hydrogen plant in Gorakhpur by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Developed by Torrent Power and Torrent Gas, the plant is designed to produce 72 tonnes of green hydrogen annually. This hydrogen will be blended with natural gas and distributed to households, CNG stations, and industries, making it the largest blending initiative in India’s City Gas Distribution sector. The project not only enhances the adoption of green hydrogen but also aligns with India’s larger vision of sustainable energy and reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
