Gensol Engineering Ltd, a solar engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) and electric mobility solutions provider, in collaboration with Matrix Gas & Renewables Ltd, a green hydrogen infrastructure developer and natural gas aggregator, has emerged as the lowest bidder for engineering, procurement and construction of India’s first bio-hydrogen project. The project will be executed for India’s leading power generation company, stated the joint release by the two companies.

The Gensol-Matrix consortium will establish the project to convert 25 tons of bio-waste into one ton of hydrogen per day. The project is valued at INR 164 crore and scheduled for completion within 18 months.

The company has strategically partnered with Westinghouse, USA, who has patented technology and has commissioned multiple plants globally.

The scope of work includes developing the establishment of a 25 tons per day (tpd) bio-waste processing and producing 1 tpd green hydrogen infrastructure from pre-gasification plasma induced radiant energy-based gasification system (GH2-PREGS) technology.

Gensol and Matrix are backed by common promoters and intend to continue to collaborate in green hydrogen and its derivatives, including green steel and green ammonia domain, leveraging the skillsets of each other.
