Ohmium, Spirare Energy Collaborate with NTPC to Provide Green Hydrogen

United States-headquartered PEM Electrolyzer manufacturing specialist Ohmium International has collaborated with New Delhi-based Spirare Energy to provide green hydrogen to NTPC for India’s green hydrogen grid project.
 
As per the agreement signed between Ohmium, Spirare Energy and NTPC NETRA (R&D wing), India’s largest utility will use Ohmium’s PEM Electrolyzer for hydrogen generation and energy storage at its NETRA campus.
 
Commenting on the development, Arne Ballantine, CEO of Ohmium International, said “green hydrogen offers India the opportunity to become a global energy leader–and with Spirare and NTPC we’re delivering on that potential. NTPC is pioneering the green hydrogen sector in India and we’re thrilled that they are utilizing our Made in India electrolyzers.”
 
“We look forward to showing how our modular, high-volume, low-cost PEM electrolyzers can scale rapidly and efficiently to reach megawatt to gigawatt applications,” Ballantine added.
 
Under the scope of the project work, Spirare Energy will manage the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) of the project while Ohmium will provide the hydrogen electrolyzers to Spirare.
 
Moreover, the project will supply up to 52 tons of green hydrogen per annum for power generation and energy storage applications.
 
“Ohmium’s PEM electrolyzers provide us a reliable, scalable green hydrogen solution that is the best on the market. We’re excited to be moving forward with Ohmium to complete what is among the most important green hydrogen projects in the country,” said Suhas Bhasin, Managing Director of Spirare. 

Also, this Spirare-Ohmium project is part of NTPC’s NETRA Green Campus Project.
 
Ohmium manufactures standardized interlocking modular Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzers that produce pressurized high-purity hydrogen. Individual electrolyzers can be stacked to significantly reduce installation and maintenance costs while enabling unlimited configurations of deployment sizes. Ohmium’s proprietary electrolyzer stack technology can sustain differential pressure across the membrane without compromise, which enhances cost-effective operation.
