L&T Energy to Build India’s Largest Green Hydrogen Plant

In a major boost to India’s green energy ambitions, L&T Energy GreenTech Ltd (LTEG) has been selected to develop India’s largest green hydrogen plant at IOCL’s Panipat Refinery in Haryana.

The project, which will operate on a Build-Own-Operate (BOO) basis, marks a landmark collaboration between Larsen & Toubro and Indian Oil Corporation Ltd to support the Government’s National Green Hydrogen Mission.

Key Highlights of the Project:

  • Developer: L&T Energy GreenTech Ltd (LTEG), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Larsen & Toubro
  • Client: Indian Oil Corporation Ltd (IOCL)
  • Location: Panipat Refinery, Haryana
  • Capacity: 10,000 tonnes per annum of green hydrogen
  • Duration: 25-year supply contract
  • Mode: Build-Own-Operate (BOO) model
  • Technology: High-pressure alkaline electrolysers from L&T Electrolysers, Hazira
  • Power Source: Round-the-clock renewable energy

The plant will produce 10,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually over a 25-year period, powering IOCL’s refining operations with clean energy and significantly cutting down carbon emissions.

The hydrogen will be generated using high-pressure alkaline electrolysers, which are being manufactured in L&T’s state-of-the-art Hazira facility in Gujarat — further reinforcing India’s drive for Aatmanirbhar Bharat in clean tech.

The green hydrogen plant will run round the clock using renewable energy sources, making it one of the first industrial-scale green hydrogen deployments in the country. This aligns with IOCL’s broader de-carbonization strategy and India’s national goal of net-zero emissions.
