New Delhi (National Desk): Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Monday virtually inaugurated Hero Future Energies’ (HFE) first-of-its kind Green Hydrogen plant at Rockman Industries in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh. This project reinforces HFE’s commitment to driving India’s green hydrogen ecosystem, and accelerating industrial decarbonisation, while also testifying to Rockman Industries consistent focus on sustainable business operations.
This plant is considered a pioneering initiative for its unique blending of green hydrogen with PNG/LPG for an industrial furnace application- a breakthrough feat in industrial de-carbonization, setting a new benchmark for India’s energy transition. This technology integration promises significant reductions in emissions, laying the groundwork for a scalable model that can be replicated across hard to abate industries in AP and the rest of India.
On this occasion, N Chandrababu Naidu, said, “Andhra Pradesh continues to set a bold vision for the future of clean energy in India! Today, I inaugurated a first-of-its-kind green hydrogen plant in Tirupati. Launched by Hero Future Energies (HFE) and Rockman Industries, this pioneering project blends Green Hydrogen with LPG/PNG for industrial applications, marking a significant breakthrough in industrial decarbonization. This initiative sets a new benchmark for India’s clean energy transition and demonstrates the potential of scalable, sustainable solutions. The success of this project offers a blueprint for industries such as glass, steel, petrochemicals, and chemicals to adopt hydrogen-based solutions without the need for extensive infrastructure overhauls.“
“This milestone also reflects our commitment to leading India’s green energy revolution in alignment with the Swarnandhra Vision 2047. The Andhra Pradesh Integrated Clean Energy Policy 2024 has been a bold step in that direction, aiming to add over 160 GW of renewable energy capacity and attract investments worth approximately ₹10 trillion (~$118.95 billion) within the next five years. With its strategic coastal advantages, deep-sea ports, robust logistics network, and industry-friendly policies, Andhra Pradesh is poised to become a global hub for green hydrogen exports, catering to domestic and international markets!,” he added.
