BGR Tech Ltd., a Prenora Investment holding company in India, has entered into a strategic partnership with Stargate Hydrogen, an Estonian pioneer in Alkaline electrolyzer systems.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed by Priyadershini Raghupathy, Founder & Chairperson of BGR Tech, and Marko Virkebau, CEO & Board Member of Stargate Hydrogen.

This collaboration aims to bring Stargate's advanced high-pressure Alkaline Water Electrolyzer (AWE) technology to the Indian market. Stargate's flagship product, the Stellar Series AWE, operates at pressures up to 32 bar and offers a single stack capacity of up to 100 Nm³/h (500 kW). This design focuses on minimizing maintenance and operational costs, making it a practical solution for green hydrogen production.

Stellar Series electrolyzer will be integrated into BGR Tech's pilot plant, which includes an Ultra-Pure water treatment unit, a Gas Separation Unit (GSU) and a Hydrogen Purification System (HPS). This integration is expected to enhance the efficiency and reliability of hydrogen production systems tailored for Indian projects.

The BGR-Tech’s inhouse Pilot plant in Chennai is expected to produce the Green Hydrogen by May 2025 and the same will be used a R&D tool for further monitoring & improving the reliability & efficiency of the system.

The Stellar Series Alkaline Water Electrolyzer stack was recently unveiled by Marje Luup, Ambassador of Estonia to India during India Energy Week 2025 in New Delhi.
