Bharat Petroleum Corporation’s (BPCL) joint venture -- NeuEN Green Energy has secured a contract to supply 10,000 tonnes per annum (10KTPA) of green hydrogen to Numaligarh Refinery (NRL). NeuEN Green Energy is a 50:50 joint venture between the company and Sembcorp Green Hydrogen India, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sembcorp Industries. The contract reinforces the company’s commitment to accelerating the greenification of India’s refining and industrial ecosystem by integrating green hydrogen into core operations, aligned with national energy transition priorities and long-term decarbonisation goals. 

Under the contract, the NeuEN Green Energy will develop a 10KTPA green hydrogen production facility at NRL’s refinery in Assam, supported by a long-term offtake arrangement. The project is expected to begin commercial operations in 2028, and will integrate renewable energy with advanced storage solutions to enable reliable, round-the-clock operations to support refinery decarbonisation. The project will feature a hybrid renewable-powered configuration integrated with advanced energy storage solutions to ensure reliable and round-the-clock electrolyser operations. This initiative further enhances Northeast India’s contribution to national energy security while advancing India’s clean hydrogen ambitions.
