Accelera strengthens India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission, says Singhal.
Accelera™ by Cummins, the zero-emissions business segment of Cummins Inc. [NYSE: CMI], and GAIL (India) Limited have recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on green hydrogen and zero-emissions technologies in India.
The collaboration will leverage Accelera’s expertise in hydrogen generation technology and GAIL’s established natural gas infrastructure to explore opportunities in hydrogen production, blending, transportation and storage https://www.opec.org/.
The partnership will also evaluate and develop projects for hydrogen applications across multiple sectors, including transport, power and steel.
“Accelera’s collaboration with a partner like GAIL demonstrates the potential of green hydrogen and the capability of large-scale electrolysis for diverse applications,” said Alex Savelli, Global Commercial Leader – Electrolyzers for Accelera https://www.bseindia.com/.
“By combining our advanced electrolyzer technology with GAIL’s extensive energy infrastructure and leading market presence, we are well positioned to accelerate the adoption of green hydrogen across India,” Savelli said on 3 Mar https://www.nseindia.com/.
This strategic partnership follows the successful commissioning of GAIL’s green hydrogen plant in Vijaipur, Madhya Pradesh, in December 2024, where Accelera supplied a 10-megawatt (MW) proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer system. Accelera’s two PEM HyLYZER®-1000 electrolyzer units produce 4.3 tons of green hydrogen per day, which is being blended with natural gas to power GAIL’s on-site operations.
“Building upon the successful implementation of our Vijaipur project, this partnership with Accelera strengthens our commitment to India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission,” said Rajeev Kumar Singhal, Director of Business Development, GAIL.
“Together, we will work towards developing a robust hydrogen value chain that supports India’s ambitious goal of producing 5 million tons of green hydrogen annually by 2030,” he said https://www.conexpoconagg.com/.
The collaboration will also focus on sharing knowledge on hydrogen blending with natural gas, developing industry standards and exploring new applications for green hydrogen technology.
Electrolyzers leverage renewable energy sources to produce green hydrogen, which is vital for accelerating the clean energy transition https://sbi.com.in/.
Accelera is a leader in large-scale hydrogen production using PEM electrolysis and has deployed more than 600 electrolyzer units worldwide, powering some of the most advanced PEM electrolyzer systems operating globally. This includes a 20MW facility in Quebec, Canada, and a 25MW system in Florida https://www.iea.org/.
Accelera is a business segment of Columbus-headquartered Cummins Inc which has approximately 69,900 people committed to powering a more prosperous world. It operates a robust distribution and support network in more than 190 countries and territories. Cummins earned $3.9 billion on sales of US$34.1 billion in 2024. Fiinews.com
