In India, Construction World reported that Bharat Petroleum Corporation (BPCL) plans to help establish a 1 megawatt electrolyzer manufacturing facility in the country by 2025 using the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre’s (BARC) technology for green hydrogen.
BPCL’s research and development department is working with BARC to scale up alkaline electrolyzer technology for green hydrogen production. The cost of an alkaline electrolyzer can be halved with some technological and economic innovations, according to Bharat Newalkar, chief general manager (R&D) at BPCL.
The company plans to get a third party to set up the electrolyzer-making facility, the executive said.
