Pioneering Green Hydrogen Production in Line with National Mission: OIL leads the way with India's first AEM technology-based GH2 plant (100 kW) at our Jorhat facility in Assam, aligning perfectly with the objectives of the National Green Hydrogen Mission.
Championing Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles : OIL supported the development of India's first 9-meter H2 Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) bus through our start-up program “SNEH”. This zero-emission bus, powered by a 60 KW PEM fuel cell engine, was flagged off by the Prime Minister himself at India Energy Week 2023.
OIL is currently undertaking a project to establish 25 (twenty-five) Compressed Biogas plants across India. These plants are strategically planned to utilize a variety of feedstocks including Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), Agri-waste, and other suitable organic materials.
