An Indian renewable energy company with 800 MW of solar capacity in Rajasthan was planning a green hydrogen production facility (electrolysis) targeting EU export. The EU REPowerEU plan imported 10 MT of green hydrogen annually by 2030. The Indian company had no EU contacts, no understanding of EU hydrogen certification requirements, and no idea of the shipping economics (hydrogen must be converted to ammonia for ocean shipping).
AJG facilitated connections with the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance (ECA) and the German Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (DWV). Technical analysis commissioned on hydrogen-to-ammonia conversion economics (Rajasthan to Hamburg via ammonia tanker). EU hydrogen certification requirements mapped: EU Delegated Act on renewable hydrogen definition (November 2023) establishes the GHG threshold (3.38 kg CO2eq/kg H2). Indian solar green hydrogen meets this threshold easily. A German industrial gas company was identified as a potential offtake partner.
Letter of Intent signed between Indian producer and German industrial gas company at month 12 for 50,000 tonnes/year of green ammonia (hydrogen carrier) from 2028 onward. LOI is conditional on offtake price agreement (floor price negotiations ongoing), Indian government port and pipeline infrastructure development, and EU hydrogen bank support for the European buyer.
