“This will be one of the largest plants in India and perhaps the largest in the world,” Manoj K Upadhyay, Founder & Chairman, ACME Group, said.
“This plant will produce green hydrogen and ammonia, which will help to de-carbonize sectors such as fertilizers, power, refining and steel, amongst others.”
According to Upadhyay, the project will need solar radiation, access to a port, availability of land, and skilled resources which are all offered by Tamil Nadu.
“This project will comprise 5,000-megawatt of the solar PV plant, 1.5 gigawatts of the electrolyzer, and 1.1 million tonnes of ammonia synthesis loop,” Sandeep Kashyap, COO, ACME Group, said.
