Avaada Partners with Casale For 1,500 TPD Green Ammonia Plant in Odisha

Avaada Group, has announced its strategic collaboration with Casale, a global pioneer in ammonia technology, to develop a 1,500 tons per day (TPD) state-of-the-art green ammonia plant in Gopalpur, Odisha.

The Gopalpur plant will be powered entirely by renewable energy, utilizing Casale’s advanced ammonia production technology to ensure a carbon-free process. Casale will provide the Green Ammonia Process License, Basic Engineering Package, Proprietary Equipment, and Detailed Engineering review, helping to create a benchmark facility that aligns with India’s ambitious Net Zero commitments.

Vineet Mittal, Chairman of Avaada Group, emphasized the transformative potential of the collaboration:
“At Avaada, we are committed to leading the way in sustainable energy solutions. This green ammonia plant reflects our vision of creating a carbon-free future while driving India’s green energy revolution. Collaborating with Casale enables us to leverage world-class expertise to deliver a facility that is both innovative and transformative. Together, we aim to set new global standards in green ammonia production. This milestone project will not only strengthen India’s energy independence but also showcase the nation’s potential to lead globally in green industrial advancements. It’s a proud moment for Avaada as we take a definitive step towards a greener future.”

Federico Zardi, CEO of Casale, highlighted the importance of this partnership:
“This marks a significant milestone in our commitment to supporting India’s clean energy transition. With this project, Casale further strengthens its presence in India, where we have now licensed a total green ammonia capacity of 5,700 MTD. Our cutting-edge technologies will enable Avaada to produce green ammonia efficiently, contributing to India’s decarbonization goals and global leadership in sustainable industrial solutions.”

The Gopalpur green ammonia facility will significantly reduce carbon emissions by replacing fossil fuel-based ammonia production with renewable energy, while fostering India’s leadership in sustainable industrial practices.

Green ammonia has been considered a much more practical and useful option as compared to green hydrogen, thanks to the ability and technology to produce and store it much more easily than green hydrogen. It also costs less because it doesn’t require expensive processes to produce it. Green ammonia is also a liquid fuel that can be used in existing internal combustion engines.
