In a significant development ahead of the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2024, Essar Group, in collaboration with the government of Gujarat, has sealed three Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) aimed at advancing the energy and infrastructure sectors within the state. These agreements represent a substantial overall investment of Rs 550 billion. Among the key initiatives outlined in the MoUs, one stands out prominently—an ambitious 1,000 MW green hydrogen project, slated to be established at an estimated cost of Rs 300 billion.

This groundbreaking partnership comes on the heels of Essar Group’s strategic move in February 2023, when it launched Essar Energy Transition (EET). EET has strategically positioned itself to focus on hydrogen initiatives, decarbonization efforts, new energy infrastructure, and biofuels. Over the next five years, EET intends to channel a total investment of $3.6 billion into various low-carbon energy transition projects. Of this substantial commitment, $2.4 billion is earmarked for its facility in Stanlow, the United Kingdom.

India, however, remains a priority for Essar Group’s energy transition endeavors, with $1.2 billion slated for investment in the country. The primary objective is to establish a cost-effective global hub for the production and distribution of low-carbon fuels, with a specific emphasis on green ammonia and green hydrogen. This investment will see India exporting ammonia to the UK, Europe, and other international markets, catering to the surging demand for green hydrogen, thus reinforcing India’s role in the global green energy landscape.
