Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited’s (HPCL) renewable energy subsidiary, HPCL Green R&D Centre, has entered a strategic partnership with Engineers India Limited (EIL) to advance and market hydrogen technology in India. This collaboration aims to support the country’s push for sustainable energy by promoting hydrogen as a clean fuel alternative. Through this alliance, the companies will focus on developing, commercializing, and deploying hydrogen technologies to cater to industrial and commercial sectors, accelerating India’s transition to greener energy sources.

HPCL and EIL are set to explore various hydrogen production methods, including green hydrogen generated through electrolysis using renewable power sources. EIL’s expertise in project management and engineering aligns well with HPCL’s renewable ambitions, aiming to establish a comprehensive hydrogen value chain—from production to storage, distribution, and utilization.

This partnership reflects the increasing momentum within India to develop hydrogen infrastructure, spurred by both government support and private investment. By focusing on hydrogen technology, HPCL and EIL aim to offer industries a viable alternative to conventional fossil fuels, aligning with India’s National Hydrogen Mission to make the country a global hub for green hydrogen. The collaboration is expected to foster innovation and lead to cost-effective solutions, making hydrogen a more accessible energy resource.
