Ohmium International, a player in green hydrogen technology, and Spirare Energy, a specialist in on-site energy solutions, have successfully generated green hydrogen at a pilot project located at NTPC’s Energy Technology Research Alliance (NETRA) campus in New Delhi.
The initiative marks a significant milestone in renewable energy innovation.
Solar-Hydrogen Microgrid
The pilot project integrates a solar-hydrogen microgrid to sustainably power the NTPC NETRA campus.
Designed for uninterrupted energy supply, the microgrid combines solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation with a hydrogen storage system.
Solar arrays generate green electricity, which powers Ohmium’s proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer.
The system efficiently splits water into hydrogen and oxygen using solar energy.
The green hydrogen produced is stored on-site and later converted back into electricity via fuel cells, ensuring a steady and sustainable energy supply.
Modular and Scalable PEM Electrolyzers
Modular and scalable PEM electrolyzers are developed by Ohmium, which is renowned for this achievement.
With a global presence, the company operates out of its U.S. headquarters and manufacturing facilities in India.
Its innovations cater to a robust project pipeline of over 2 GW spanning three continents.
Recent Milestones
In 2023, Ohmium secured $250 million in Series C financing, led by TPG Rise Climate.
The funding accelerated its mission to advance green hydrogen solutions.
By July 2024, the company had inaugurated a state-of-the-art Gigafactory in Bangalore, India, further bolstering its manufacturing capabilities.
A Step Toward Greener Energy
The collaboration between Ohmium and Spirare Energy highlights the potential of green hydrogen to revolutionize energy systems.
As reported by pv-magazine-india.com, with their cutting-edge technologies, they are paving the way for a more sustainable future powered by renewable energy sources.
