WOBO recognises the move towards green hydrogen projects in India.

HyGear and GPS Renewables will convert organic waste and landfill gas into hydrogen, essentially aiding the development of a zero-carbon economy in India.

The Dutch hydrogen provider and the Indian bioenergy technology company will convert organic waste and landfill gas into hydrogen making use of GPS Renewables bio-methanation plants, downstream bio CNG installations and HyGear’s on-site steam methane reforming-based Hy.GEN products.

Investment in the field has been prompted by the Indian administration’s pledge to expand green hydrogen production in a bid to phase out fossil fuels and achieve energy self-reliance by 2047. (At the moment, India imports 85% of its oil, 50% of its natural gas and 30% of its coal.)

HyGear CEO Marinus Can Driel emphasized the sustainable nature of the project, stating that the use of organic waste and landfill gas to derive green hydrogen serves to contribute to a global circular economy.

“Steam methane reforming of renewables natural gas represents one of the lowest emissions and cost-effective production pathways available today for hydrogen. We look forward to contributing to India’s decarbonisation goals with a local biogas leader such as GPS Renewables,” he said….
