ABC Cleantech, a part of Hyderabad-based renewables developer Axis Energy Group, has announced that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Karnataka to invest around $6 billion to set up a 5 GW green hydrogen and ammonia plant in the state.
The facility will have the capacity to produce 0.2 million ton of green hydrogen per year and 1 million ton of green ammonia per year, with 5 GW of renewable energy projects.
The company expects the manufacturing unit to generate employment for about 5,000 people over 10 years.

This JV has more than 2 GW of projects under various stages of implementation and it recently commissioned a 445 MWp solar power project in Rajasthan in record time.
