NEOM Green Hydrogen Co (NGHC) has named Indian contractor Larsen & Toubro (L&T) as the sub-EPC contractor for its massive green hydrogen plant in Saudi Arabia. Under the terms of the contract, L&T will execute power grid and power generation works for the plant on an EPC basis.
NGHC’s primary EPC contractor and system integrator Air Products (a joint venture partner) signed the agreement with L&T, which was named one of the top contractors in the Top 25 EPC contractors list.
Located in NEOM, Saudi Arabia’s $500 billion futuristic city being developed in Tabuk, NGHC’s mega-plant will integrate up to 4 GW of solar and wind energy to produce up to 600 tons per day of carbon-free hydrogen in the form of green ammonia as a cost-effective solution for transportation globally. Green ammonia output is expected up to 1.2 million tonnes.
The plant at NEOM is scheduled for commissioning by 2026.
