KPI Green Energy secured three contracts from NTPC for a Rs. 128.49 crore plasma gasification project at NTPC NETRA, Greater Noida, to build a 1 TPD green hydrogen plant using waste (MSW/Agri-waste), marking the company's entry into this tech and India's push for clean energy.

The scope includes engineering, supply, erection, and 2-year O&M, utilizing advanced waste-to-energy technology to produce hydrogen, supporting NTPC's decarbonization goals.

Plasma gasification is an advanced waste-to-energy process that enables conversion of municipal solid waste (MSW), refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and agricultural waste into synthesis gas, which can be further processed for green hydrogen production, thereby facilitating energy recovery while reducing landfill dependency and environmental impact.

This development marks the company’s first project in the green hydrogen segment and is among the early deployments of plasma gasification based green hydrogen generation projects in India, representing a strategic extension of its established renewable energy portfolio comprising solar, wind and hybrid power projects. The project reflects the company’s intent to expand into emerging clean energy technologies such as waste-to energy and green hydrogen, while leveraging its integrated engineering, manufacturing and execution capabilities.
