DNV is providing technical advice and support to Pipeline Infrastructure Limited (PIL) on the integration of blended Hydrogen into its gas trunkline assets in India – including transmission pipelines, interconnects and spur lines, compressor, valve, and metering stations & equipment.
 
PIL’s initiative is one of the first Hydrogen blended related projects in the transmission space in India, aligned with the government’s launch of India’s National Hydrogen Mission in August 2021, targeting 5 million tonnes per annum of Hydrogen production by 2030.

In conjunction with fiscal support and other incentives, the Mission aims to leverage the nation’s significant renewable energy potential to transform India into a green Hydrogen hub, help meet national climate goals and enable India to become a major producer and exporter of Hydrogen to Japan, South Korea, and Europe.
 
Akhil Mehrotra – MD&CEO - PIL says “The Hydrogen industry in India is still in its infancy and has a huge scope to supplement the growing energy needs while supporting the shift to a cleaner environment. Backed by strong governmental support for clean energy and significant renewable energy potential, India has the unique opportunity to become a major producer and exporter of Hydrogen”.
 
“Repurposing natural gas pipelines for Hydrogen is 10-30% of the cost of building new pure Hydrogen networks. DNV is pleased to play a role in this by supporting PIL to transition its gas network to incorporate blended Hydrogen to support local industries. In doing so, DNV will leverage its technical expertise and methodology to help our clients meet their emission reduction goals while retaining the use of their existing infrastructure,” said Brice Le Gallo, Vice President and Regional Director APAC, Energy Systems at DNV.
