  Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) will produce 0.6 tons of hydrogen on an Pilot basis!

 |  According to NEERIs report, one step will go ahead

 First waste to Hydrogen plant in India | Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has taken a step forward regarding hydrogen production. Pilot project of Hydrogen plant in Pune will produce 0.6 tons of hydrogen.  Meanwhile, even if this project is the first in the country or in the world, the municipality will take care to ensure that there is no financial burden on it. Dr. Kunal Khemnar (IAS), additional commissioner of the municipality said this information. (First waste to Hydrogen plant in  India)
 India’s first hydrogen gas production plant (Where is PMC Setting up India’s first waste-to-hydrogen plant in Pune?) is going to be set up in the municipal premises at Ramtekdi through Pune Municipal Corporation, Veriot Pune Waste to Energy Private Limited and The Green Billions Limited.  The Maharashtra Pollution Control Corporation (MPCB) has given permission to set up the project.  Apart from this, institutes like Niri, IIM Mumbai have given positive reports in this regard.  But this project did not seem to go ahead.  Because the Municipal Corporation expects that it will get funds from the Central Government.  Central and state governments have formulated green hydrogen policies.  According to the municipal corporation regarding getting funds  Correspondence has been done with both Govt.  Meanwhile, a meeting of the Financial Technical Analysis Committee was called on behalf of the Municipal Corporation to go one step further and check the financial matters.  There was a positive discussion about the project.  (waste to Hydrogen plant in Pune)
 In this regard, Dr. Khemnar said that in this project we are going to move forward one step at a time according to Niri’s report.  Accordingly, the first phase will be on an experimental basis.  It will produce 0.6 ton of hydrogen.  That means 10 tons of waste will be processed.  After success in that, 200 ton and finally 350 ton project will be done.  For that first we are going to put this proposal before Municipal Commissioner for approval.  Dr. Khemnar further said that the hydrogen produced in the project at Ramtekdi will be given to PMP.  How much fuel will be saved by its use, how the cost will be saved will be taken.  We will also submit a proposal to the PMP in this regard.  Because PMP can go ahead only if hydrogen becomes cheaper than CNG.

 Even if the municipal hydrogen project is the first project in the country or in the world, we will not allow any financial burden on the municipal corporation.  Therefore, we will make an agreement with the relevant company regarding the revenue model.  Also, we will proceed with a bank guarantee for the project that we are going to invest.
