World’s largest Green Hydrogen Microgrid Projects:
Part of: Prelims and Mains GS-III: Energy
To be set up at Simhadri
It would be a precursor to large scale hydrogen energy storage projects and would be useful for studying and deploying multiple microgrids in various off grid and strategic locations of the country.
Would open doors for decarbonising the far-off regions of the country like Ladakh, J&K etc., hitherto dependent on diesel generators.
The project is in-line for India to become carbon neutral by 2070 and making Ladakh a carbon neutral territory.
