MoPSW Approves Rs 797 Cr Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Jetty at Paradip Port
The project will be implemented by Paradip Port Authority on a build-operate-transfer basis and will have a handling capacity of 4.0 million tonnes per annum. The new facility is aimed at strengthening Paradip Port’s position as a key hub for green energy cargo in India.
The proposed infrastructure will include a dedicated jetty, storage systems, pipelines, cargo handling equipment and other associated facilities, supporting the growing demand for clean energy logistics and future-ready port infrastructure.
Union Minister of Ports, Shipping and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal said the approval reflects the Centre’s commitment to building future-ready green infrastructure under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“This approval is a direct outcome of Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji’s inspiring and decisive leadership in positioning India as a global leader in clean energy. Under his guidance, our ports are being transformed into gateways for green growth, innovation and sustainable logistics,” Sarbananda Sonowal said.
The jetty will have a centre-to-centre distance of 279 meters between extreme end dolphins and a dredged depth of 14.3 meters in front of the berth to enable safe handling of liquid cargo vessels.
Paradip Port Authority will provide capital support equivalent to 20% of the project cost, amounting to ₹159.43 crore, during the construction phase. The project is expected to be completed within 24 months.
Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal said the dedicated green hydrogen jetty will play a critical role in strengthening export logistics and integrating Odisha’s emerging green hydrogen production clusters with global markets.
