Green Hydrogen

Line Image

Green hydrogen isn't just a clean fuel - it's a transformative technology paving the way to a sustainable future.

Onix Renewable Ltd. is actively involved in the development of green hydrogen projects in India. The company has signed several Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with the Gujarat government to invest in green hydrogen and ammonia production in the state.

Green hydrogen is a critical component of the global shift toward a clean and sustainable energy future. Produced using renewable energy sources like solar and wind, it offers a zero-carbon alternative to fossil fuels, addressing some of the most pressing challenges in energy, industry, and transportation.

Why Focus on Green Hydrogen?

Arrow Icon

Green hydrogen stands out as the most sustainable and scalable solution to meet global decarbonization targets. Its development is supported by declining renewable energy costs and growing international commitments to reduce carbon emissions.

Clean Energy

Benefits of Green Hydrogen

  • Environmental Benefit
  • Economic Growth
    • Job Creation: The production and development of green fuels can stimulate job growth in sectors like agriculture, technology, and clean energy.
    • Lower Long-Term Costs: Although the initial investment may be higher, green fuels can result in lower operational and societal costs by reducing health and environmental damage.
  • Energy Sustainability
    • Renewable Sources: Green fuels are derived from sources like plants, algae, waste, and water, which are replenishable, unlike finite fossil fuels.
    • Future Energy Security: Reducing dependence on dwindling oil and coal reserves ensures a stable and sustainable energy supply for future generations.
  • Energy Security
    • Reduced Dependency on: Green fuel can be produced by domestically and natural resource’s as raw material and green energy, which increase energy security of nation and reduce dependency on foreign fuel’s like crude oil, Coal, gases, etc.
    • Diverse Energy Sources: They promote diversification of energy supply, minimizing risks associated with fuel shortages or price volatility.
  • Energy Storage
    Green fuel like Green Ammonia can be used to store energy, Because Ammonia has higher energy density than lithium-ion batteries and compressed Hydrogen.
  • Compatibility
    Energy compatibility refers to the ability of different energy systems, technologies, and sources to work together efficiently and effectively.
  • Aligning with Global Goals
    • Paris Agreement Compliance: Green fuels support international efforts to limit global temperature rise to below 2°C by reducing reliance on fossil fuels. According to the Paris Agreement and most international climate goals, the world is currently targeting 2050 as the year to reach net zero carbon emissions.
    • Energy Equity: They make clean energy accessible to developing regions, ensuring global energy justice.
  • Adapting to Energy Needs
    • Scalability: Green fuels can be scaled up to meet the growing energy demands of transportation, industry, and households without harming the environment.
    • Versatility: They can power everything from vehicles to homes and factories, offering flexible solutions for diverse energy requirements.

Power Processes

Hydrogen Production Methods

Green Hydrogen

Production Process:

Electrolysis: Uses electricity from renewable energy (solar, wind, or hydro) to split water (H₂O) into hydrogen (H₂) and oxygen (O₂).

Key Features:

Arrow IconZero carbon emissions.

Arrow IconSustainable and renewable.

Applications:

Energy storage, transportation, industrial processes, and residential heating.

Grey Hydrogen

Production Process:

Steam Methane Reforming (SMR): Natural gas (methane) reacts with steam under high temperatures to produce hydrogen and carbon dioxide (CO₂).

Key Features:

Arrow IconMost common hydrogen production method today.

Arrow IconEmits significant CO₂, contributing to climate change.

Applications:

Industrial processes, such as ammonia production and oil refining.

Blue Hydrogen

Production Process:

Same as grey hydrogen but includes carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) to trap and store CO₂ emissions.

Key Features:

Arrow IconLower carbon emissions than grey hydrogen.

Arrow IconRelies on fossil fuels and CCUS infrastructure.

Applications:

Transition fuel for industries aiming to decarbonize.
