YamnaCo Signs MoU with Andhra Pradesh to Develop Large-Scale Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Project

UK-based green hydrogen and ammonia producer YamnaCo Ltd has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the New and Renewable Energy Development Corporation of Andhra Pradesh (NREDCAP) to explore the development of a major clean energy project in India. The agreement was formalised on 18 July 2025.
The project, planned for development near Krishnapatnam Port, will focus on producing green ammonia with a targeted capacity of up to one million tonnes per annum (Mtpa). The initiative is aligned with India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission, which aims to achieve five Mtpa of green hydrogen production by 2030.
The investment is estimated at approximately INR 16,000 crore and is expected to generate around 5,500 direct and indirect jobs in the region. The phased development will be supported by the state government and facilitated through close cooperation with NREDCAP and other key agencies, including AP EDB and AP IIC.
Gal Bogin, Chief Development Officer at Yamna, said the partnership is a significant step in scaling clean energy infrastructure. “We are honored to partner with the Government of Andhra Pradesh in this transformative initiative,” he stated.
Shailendra Bebortha, Country Head for India at Yamna, highlighted the state’s advantages in renewable energy development. “The state’s rich renewable energy potential, progressive policy framework, and strategic location make it an ideal destination for green hydrogen development. This project will not only support India’s decarbonisation goals but also position Andhra Pradesh as a key player in the global green hydrogen economy,” he said.
YamnaCo, supported by UK-based energy transition fund HYCAP, will apply its Develop Build Own Operate model to the Andhra Pradesh project. The company brings global experience in green fuel infrastructure, including a one Mtpa green ammonia project in Oman, co-developed with J-POWER of Japan and EDF of France.
The Andhra Pradesh project will target both domestic and export markets, making use of the state’s port connectivity to serve international demand from Europe and Asia. According to the company, several international financial institutions have already expressed interest in the development.
