Larsen & Toubro (L&T) commissioned its first indigenously manufactured electrolyser at the Green Hydrogen Plant at A M Naik Heavy Engineering Complex in Hazira, Gujarat.
The electrolyser can produce 200 Nm3/Hr of hydrogen and is equipped with two stacks and an Electrolyser Processing Unit (EPU) ML-400, which is indigenously manufactured and assembled. It offers flexibility and thermal stability.
L&T stated that the electrolyser will undergo rigorous testing in the coming weeks to optimise its performance, and in turn, pave the way for full-fledged manufacturing of electrolysers.
