Hydrogen being the cleanest form of energy is the latest focus area across the globe. Green hydrogen is derived from water electrolysis using renewable energy like solar or wind. Brown and grey hydrogen are produced through coal gasification and natural gas reforming, respectively. Integration with appropriate carbon capture and utilisation technologies results in Blue hydrogen.

IndianOil has a wind power project in Rajasthan (India) which it intends to wheel that power to its Mathura refinery to produce green hydrogen. Green hydrogen will replace carbon-emitting fuels used in the refinery to process crude oil into value-added products such as petrol and diesel. This will help decarbonise some part of the manufacturing.

IndianOil will add 25 million tonnes of refining capacity by the year 2023-24. Forecasts by various agencies sees Indian fuel demand climbing to 400-450 million tonnes by 2040. While exploring the multiple energy avenues, environmental conscience will be a critical priority for IndianOil.
