Clear Skies Ahead! INOX Air Products and Asahi India Glass (AIS) are joining forces to create a world-first: India's first-ever green hydrogen plant dedicated to the float glass industry!
Green Hydrogen for a Sustainable Future:
Clean Fuel for Cleaner Glass: This innovative project will use green hydrogen, a clean-burning fuel, to power AIS's float glass production process.
Sun Power to the Rescue: The green hydrogen plant will be powered by solar energy, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and minimizing the environmental impact.
A Pioneering Partnership:
Setting the Standard: This MoU between INOX Air Products and AIS sets a groundbreaking precedent for sustainable glass manufacturing in India.
20-Year Green Pact: The agreement ensures a reliable supply of green hydrogen for AIS for the next two decades.
First Phase, Big Impact:
Early Green Gains: In the initial phase, the plant will generate 95 tonnes of green hydrogen annually, significantly reducing AIS's carbon footprint.
Scaling Up for Success: The plant has the capacity to produce up to 190 tonnes of green hydrogen per year, paving the way for future expansion.
A Greener Future for Glass Manufacturing:
Solar Investment Boosts Sustainability: AIS's investment in the solar power plant powering the green hydrogen production further strengthens their commitment to eco-friendly practices.
Advanced Glass with a Clean Conscience: This project allows AIS to manufacture high-quality float glass for automobiles and architecture while minimizing their environmental impact.
The collaboration between INOX Air Products and AIS is a major leap forward for sustainable glass manufacturing in India. By harnessing the power of green hydrogen and solar energy, this project paves the way for a cleaner and greener future for the industry!
