The #MinistryofPower has issued guidelines for the 'Viability Gap Funding (VGF) for Development of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)' scheme.  Government of India #solarenergy #renewableenergy #energystorage #EnergeticaIndia

The Government of India has come out with guidelines for funding of testing facilities, infrastructure, and institutional support for development of standards and regulatory framework under the National Green Hydrogen Mission. The Scheme Guidelines have been issued by the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE) on July 4, 2024. The scheme will support identification of the gaps in the existing testing facilities for components, technologies, and processes in the value chain of green hydrogen & its derivatives. The scheme will support creation of new testing facilities and upgradation of existing testing facilities to ensure safe and secure operations. The scheme will be implemented with a total budgetary outlay of Rs.200 crore till FY26. The National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE) will be the Scheme Implementation agency (SIA). #solar #greenhydrogen

“The Hydrogen Stream: SECI invites proposals to develop #greenhydrogenhubinfrastructure ” “Solar Energy Corp. of India (SECI) has invited proposals to develop the core infrastructure required for setting up of #greenhydrogenhubs under the #NationalGreenHydrogenMission . Bidding closes on Oct.7.” AUGUST 20, 2024 - UMA GUPTA AND SERGIO MATALUCCI “As per India’s Green Hydrogen Mission, regions capable of supporting large-scale production and/or utilization of hydrogen will be identified and developed as green hydrogen hubs.” “#Hydrogenhub is an identified geographical region housing a network of green hydrogen (#GH2) producers, end use (domestic or export) with sufficient supporting infrastructure of #GH2storage , processing and transportation. A hydrogen hub might be located in land or near ports to enable exports of green hydrogen and its derivatives. Potential locations for such hubs would be regions having cluster of refineries/fertilizer production plants and other end use industries in close vicinity.” “Under this SECI’s Call for Proposals, at least two such green hydrogen hubs [of individual #greenhydrogen capacity of at least 1,00,000 mtpa] will be set up by FY 2025-26 with a budgetary outlay of INR 200 crore till FY 2025-26.” https://lnkd.in/eg_HXU9v Source - original post Read all my posts #MariusPreston

We invite you to review 13 draft international hydrogen-related standards proposed for adoption. In 2023 we released the Hydrogen standards review report, a thorough review of technical standards governing the production, distribution, and utilisation of hydrogen that might enable the safe integration of hydrogen across New Zealand’s energy landscape. The review led to a recommendation to directly adopt relevant international standards that would allow New Zealand to draw upon international good practice and tried and tested solutions. This represented an economical and efficient way to pave the path for hydrogen integration and safety. Now, we invite you to review the 13 draft international hydrogen-related standards proposed for adoption. Hydrogen integration impacts many industries – from those working with storage facilities, to transport and decentralised distribution and piping – we encourage you to have your say on how these would work for you and your industry. The committee have reviewed the standards and will consider all feedback to ensure the adoptions are fit for the New Zealand energy landscape.

Anyone following ground realities of green H2, knows that it’s not possible. In fact the bigger trouble, lack of capital discipline and unfounded claims to capture climate financing is leading to several sources/projects in broad renewables category getting uneconomical, even what used to be economical, recent victim is Danish Offshore Wind

#NamasteIndia #Essar #Energy #Transition (EET) recently unveiled plans to develop Europe's first hydrogen-ready combined heat and power plant (CHP) at its #Stanlow #refinery in #Ellesmere Port, UK. Here are the key points: Plant Name:#EET #Hydrogen #Power #Capacity: 125 #MW of power and produce 6,000 #tonnes/day of steam. #Hydrogen #Fuel: The plant will #operate using 100% hydrogen fuel, making it a crucial part of #decarbonizing industry and the power system in the UK. #Carbon #Reduction: By replacing hydrocarbons, the plant aims to reduce approximately 740,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually. #Timeline: #EET Hydrogen Power is expected to be operational by 2027. This initiative not only contributes to #EET's goal of becoming the #lowest #carbon #process #refinery globally but also sets an example for other industrial and power decarbonization efforts.

India needs 24x7 availability of power for its economic growth; however, this power cannot be achieved by renewable energy sources alone. Thermal energy cannot be written off till storage becomes cost-effective for Round-the-Clock supply through Renewable Energy. Although generation of thermal energy involves increase of carbon footprints, still there are ways for minimizing that. Optimization is possible and required in all fields of power generation too.

On May 27, 2024, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) issued office memorandums announcing a significant policy shift in relation to Green Hydrogen regime in India. Renewable energy power plants located in Special Economic Zones or Export Oriented Units that supply power specifically to green hydrogen production units have been exempted from the requirements of the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers and the Revised List of Models and Manufacturers. This strategic exemption is aimed at accelerating the growth of green hydrogen production by easing regulatory constraints on these power plants. IndusLaw’s M. Arun Kumar, Ahona Pal and Aayushi Kulshrestha will delve into the reasons behind the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s decision to exempt certain renewable energy power plants from the requirements of Approved List of Models and Manufacturers and the Revised List of Models and Manufacturers. This article will explore the strategic considerations that prompted this move and provide a detailed analysis of the anticipated benefits, including the expected acceleration of green hydrogen production, reduction in regulatory hurdles, and potential positive impacts on India's renewable energy landscape and sustainability goals.
