NTPC Renewable Energy, a wholly owned subsidiary of NTPC Green Energy, has signed a green ammonia purchase agreement with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI). This agreement marks an important step in supporting India’s clean energy goals.
The deal has been signed under the SIGHT Scheme of the National Green Hydrogen Mission, which aims to promote green hydrogen and its related products. As part of the agreement, NTPC Renewable Energy will supply 70,000 metric tonnes of green ammonia every year.
The produced green ammonia will be supplied to Krishna Phoschem, which operates a manufacturing facility in Meghnagar. SECI will act as the intermediary buyer in this arrangement.
This agreement is a significant milestone for NTPC Green Energy as it continues to expand its presence in the green hydrogen and ammonia sector. Green ammonia, which is produced using renewable energy, is considered a key solution for reducing carbon emissions in industries that are difficult to decarbonise, such as fertilisers, shipping, and heavy industries.
