Thyssenkrupp to conduct study for Juno’s green hydrogen project in India
German provider of electrolysis technologies Thyssenkrupp Nucera says it is expanding its role in the global hydrogen economy with a new Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) study for a large-scale project in India. The firm says it has signed the FEED contract with Indian company Juno Joule. The planned electrolysis plant will have an installed capacity of 260 megawatts.
Juno Joule and Select Energy GmbH are developing a green ammonia plant in India. The planned complex will include integrated facilities to produce green hydrogen and green ammonia, with RFNBO compliant ammonia primarily intended for export to Europe. The project will be designed to produce green ammonia, which can be used across a range of industries.
Thyssenkrupp says it will use this FEED study to design an integration concept of Alkaline Water Electrolysis into the plant. Thanks to the region’s access to renewable energy resources, the project will utilize renewable power, sourced from a combination of solar, wind, and hydropower.
Following the FEED phase, Thyssenkrupp will continue developing the project in close collaboration with Juno Joule, with the aim of concluding an Engineering, Procurement, and Fabrication (EPF) contract in the next project phase. The execution of the project remains subject to a Final Investment Decision (FID), anticipated in FY 26/27.
Thyssenkrupp has recently undertaken in India projects including a new collaboration launched in February for a hydrogen-based partnership in India.
Electrolysis specialist and Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH started its cooperation to accelerate the development of green hydrogen and Power-to-X markets in India. The partnership brings together international development cooperation and private-sector technological expertise to unlock opportunities along the country’s hydrogen value chain.
