India Green Hydrogen Market Highlights – June 2025

There were significant developments in the green hydrogen industry in India in June 2025 when multiple groundbreaking projects and collaborations between players in the market, as well as project announcements, were witnessed. ACME has reported a green ammonia facility of 400,000 tonnes in Tata SEZ in the state of Odisha, and the plant will supply Japan, beginning in 2029. The major SECI green ammonia tender was a decarbonization tender covering the Indian fertilizer sector. Technological innovation demonstrated is making Adani set up the first off-grid 5 MW green hydrogen pilot plant in the country in Gujarat. Greenzo Energy bagged an order of INR 320 crores (USD 37.35 million) of electrolyzers for a 20 MW plant, and DEE Development Engineers ventured into the sector, having joined a global clean-tech partnership. These changes highlight the increased assertiveness of India in the production of clean hydrogen and ammonia.

India’s Green Hydrogen Surge Strengthens Clean Energy Future in June 2025

1. ACME to set up 400,000-tonne green ammonia plant at Tata SEZ in Odisha, to supply to Japan from 2029

On June 5, 2025, ACME Group reaffirmed its commitment to establish a green hydrogen and ammonia project in India at Gopalpur, Odisha. The project, to be set up within Tata SEZ, will produce 400,000 tonnes of green ammonia annually. The project is expected to generate more than 1,000 direct and indirect employment opportunities.

2. DEE Development Engineers Partners With Global Clean-Tech Firm To Speed Up Green Hydrogen Projects In India And Thailand

On June 9, 2025, DEE Development Engineers Limited (DDEL), an Indian based leading provider of specialized process piping solutions to oil and gas, power, and process industries, announced a strategic tie-up with International Clean-Tech Partner, a global leader of sustainable energy technologies.

The collaboration is DDEL's initial official step into the green hydrogen industry, where it made plans to set up modular hydrogen production systems in India and Thailand.

3. India’s solar leap to produce Green Hydrogen by splitting water molecules using only solar energy

On June 20, 2025, scientists at the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences (CeNS), Bengaluru, an autonomous institute of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), developed a next generation device that produces green hydrogen by breaking up molecules of water and then reassembling them into new molecules using only solar energy and materials that are abundant on earth, and without using fossil fuels or anything expensive. The device exhibited a remarkable surface photovoltage of 600 mV and a low onset potential of approximately 0.11 VRHE, thus beneficial in producing hydrogen through the solar system.

4. SECI's Landmark Green Ammonia tender set to decarbonize India's fertilizer sector

The Solar Energy Corporation of India Limited (SECI) is a publicly held energy corporation in India that works as a Navratna Central Public Sector Undertaking under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) dated June 23, 2025) released a historic tender to purchase Green Ammonia that can decarbonize the fertilizer industry in India. As time is running out to submit their final bids, the tender specifies the preparation and delivery of 724000 tonnes of green ammonia per year in 13 fertilizer plants, under Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) - Mode 2A, Tranche I.

5. Adani Commissions India’s First Off-Grid Green Hydrogen Pilot Plant of 5 MW Capacity

Adani New Industries Limited (ANIL) announced on 23 June 2025 that India had successfully commissioned its first off-grid 5 MW Green Hydrogen pilot plant in Kutch in Gujarat, as a significant step in clean energy move in the country.

The 100% green, state-of-the-art plant harnessing the power of solar energy and having a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) allows it to operate completely off-grid. This represents a new paradigm in decentralized, renewable-powered hydrogen production.

The ANIL pilot plant includes India's first off-grid, 5 MW green hydrogen off-take plants with a fully automated, closed-loop electrolyzer system that is dynamically responsive to real-time renewable energy inputs. This offers good functional adaptability, especially in countering the unpredictability of solar power, in addition to providing efficiency, safety, and performance.

6. Greenzo Energy receives an order worth INR 320 crore (USD 37.35 million) from Oswal Energies

On June 25, 2025, Clean-tech company Greenzo Energy stated that it had won an INR 320 crore (USD 37.35 million) order from Oswal Energies Limited to supply electrolyser and a balance of plant equipment to construct a 20 MW green hydrogen plant in the state of Gujarat, bringing its total order book value to INR 1,800 crore (USD 210.06 million). In line with this order, Greenzo Energy shall undertake the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) of the project, which is to be developed in the course of the next 12-15 months.

Green Hydrogen Momentum Builds

Finally, June 2025 portrays the growth of India's green hydrogen ecosystem supported by massive projects, cutting-edge pilot schemes, and partnering initiatives. The sector is expanding: Green ammonia is turning into fertilizers; off-grid hydrogen is to be powered by solar. The increasing participation of public and private sector market participants will guarantee a strong pipeline of clean hydrogen capacity. The schemes will enable India to decarbonize key areas, enhance energy security, and move to the net-zero targets. This month shows the breakthrough that provides a strong base for the upcoming stage of the green hydrogen trip in India.
