Hyderabad, India, 9th May 2025:<\/strong> In what would be one of the world\u2019s largest renewable energy contracts, Coal India Limited (CIL), plans to supply 4500 MW of carbon-free energy, in phased manner, to upcoming green ammonia facilities of AM Green. It would be through a combination of solar and wind whose capacities CIL aims to set up on pan India basis. This initiative aligns with India\u2019s national goal of achieving a cleaner energy mix and transition towards net-zero emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n

A formal non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU), for long-term supply and sourcing of renewable energy, was inked on 7th May between the two entities.<\/span><\/p>\n

While the solar power capacity would be to the tune of 2500 MW to 3000 MW, wind is expected to account between 1500 MW and 2000 MW at an estimated total outlay of around Rs. 25,000 Crores. Potential sites for wind projects will be explored in the southern states of the county. And, for solar plants in the sunny states like Gujarat and Rajasthan. <\/span><\/p>\n

AM Green will integrate the two renewable sources supplied by CIL with pumped hydro storage to ensure a steady supply of green energy to AM Green facilities.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhile coal remains our mainstay in meeting India\u2019s expanding energy needs in the near term, our plans include a proactive role in building a greener and more sustainable future. This is in consonance with our commitment to become country\u2019s integrated energy provider\u201d said P M Prasad, CIL\u2019s Chairman.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

AM Green promoted by the founders of Greenko, one of India\u2019s leading energy transition solutions providers, targets to produce 5 million tons per annum (MTPA) of green ammonia by 2030. This equals approximately 1 MTPA of green hydrogen and represents a fifth of India\u2019s target for green hydrogen production under the National Green Hydrogen Mission.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anil Chalamalasetty, Founder of the Hyderabad based Greenko Group & AM Green,<\/strong> said, \u201cWe are delighted to partner with CIL on one of the world\u2019s largest carbon-free, renewable energy supply contracts. We aim to become one of the most cost-competitive producers of green hydrogen, green ammonia, and other green molecules in the world\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The agreement was signed by Sudarsan Bora, GM (E&M) representing CIL while his counterpart from AM Green was Shatanshu Agrawal, Sr. Vice President \u2013 Business Development. Present were P M Prasad, Chairman, CIL, Mukesh Choudhary, Director (Marketing) CIL and Anil Kumar, GM (MM & Solar) CIL.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
