Adani commissions India's 1st off-grid green hydrogen pilot plant in Kutch

Adani New Industries Limited (ANIL) today announced the successful commissioning of India’s first off-grid 5 megawatts (MW) Green Hydrogen Pilot Plant in Kutch, Gujarat, marking a major milestone in the nation’s clean energy transition, according to a BSE filing. The state-of-the-art plant is 100 percent green-powered by solar energy and integrated with a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), enabling it to operate completely off-grid. This represents a new paradigm in decentralized, renewable-powered hydrogen production. The ANIL pilot plant is India’s first off-grid 5 MW green hydrogen facility featuring a fully automated, closed-loop electrolyzer system designed to respond dynamically to real-time renewable energy inputs. This provides valuable operational flexibility, particularly in addressing the variability of solar power, while ensuring efficiency, safety and performance. The pilot also serves as a proof of concept ahead of ANIL’s upcoming Green Hydrogen Hub in Mundra, Gujarat — a key project that will contribute significantly to India’s low-carbon future.
