Tender targets long-term supply to fertiliser units

Originally issued on June 7, 2024, the tender is part of SIGHT (Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition) Scheme – Mode 2A, Tranche I, and aims to facilitate the production and long-term supply of 7,24,000 metric tonnes of green ammonia per year.

10-year offtake agreements to offer market assurance

These agreements, with a tenure of 10 years, are expected to provide commercial certainty and encourage investment into the domestic green hydrogen and derivative markets.
