TKIL Industries Pvt Ltd (formerly thyssenkrupp Industries India Pvt Ltd) announced a strategic partnership with Germany’s 2G Energy International GmbH, a global player in Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems and gas engine technology. The collaboration aims to introduce 100% hydrogen-ready CHP solutions to India’s industrial sector, aligning with the nation’s vision of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030.
Announced in October 2025, the partnership marks a pivotal milestone in deploying German-engineered, hydrogen-compatible CHP technology for Indian industries. These systems—designed to achieve efficiencies of up to 98%—can operate on multiple fuels, including biogas, natural gas, flare gas, syngas, and even pure hydrogen.
Driving Energy Efficiency Through CHP Technology
Unlike traditional power plants that waste a significant portion of energy as heat, CHP systems recover and utilize this waste heat during electricity generation. This dual-output approach delivers both power and thermal energy, significantly reducing energy losses and enhancing efficiency.
Such technology is particularly well-suited for energy-intensive sectors like cement, steel, sugar, and paper, where continuous demand for both electricity and heat makes CHP solutions highly effective.
According to the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), India’s installed capacity from non-fossil energy sources has already crossed 234 GW, underscoring the nation’s growing commitment to clean and efficient energy systems. The TKIL–2G Energy collaboration strengthens this trajectory by offering localized, scalable, and sustainable power solutions tailored to industrial needs.
Empowering Industries to Transition Toward Sustainability
Vivek Bhatia, Managing Director and CEO of TKIL Industries, said, “Our partnership with 2G Energy extends our commitment to cleaner and more efficient energy systems. It reflects TKIL’s long-term vision of helping industries decarbonize through innovation, advanced technology, and sustainability-focused solutions.”
By integrating 2G Energy’s hydrogen-ready systems with TKIL’s engineering expertise, the partnership aims to empower Indian industries to reduce carbon emissions, improve operational efficiency, and future-proof their energy infrastructure.
A Milestone in India’s Energy Transition Journey
The collaboration reinforces India’s ongoing transition toward low-carbon industrial operations. As industries look for dependable and eco-friendly power generation options, CHP systems—particularly those compatible with hydrogen and renewable gases—are emerging as key enablers of industrial decarbonisation. As reported by thedialog.net, together, TKIL Industries and 2G Energy are setting the stage for a cleaner, more resilient industrial energy ecosystem, aligning innovation with India’s sustainable growth ambitions.
