August 2025: ACME Group, India’s leading clean solutions business group has received the Letter of Award (“LoA”) for a significant green ammonia production project by Solar Energy Corporation of India Ltd. (SECI) under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) Scheme Mode-2A, Tranche-I. Under this LoA, 75,000 metric tonnes of green ammonia will be supplied by ACME Group to one of India’s largest chemicals and fertilizer companies, Paradeep Phosphates Limited, at their facility in Paradeep, Odisha for a period of 10 years. ACME Group participated in the reverse auction held on July 29, 2025, through its entity ACME Cleantech Solutions.
The LoA confirms ACME Group’s selection through a competitive cost-based bidding process. The agreed price for green ammonia supply at the delivery point is ₹55.75 per kilogram. This landmark award is a significant step towards accelerating the adoption of clean energy and decarbonizing the hard-to-abate sectors in India.
According to Mr. Anil Kumar Taparia, Chief Operating Officer of ACME Group’s Green Hydrogen & Ammonia SBU, “This prestigious Letter of Award from SECI under the SIGHT Scheme marks a pivotal milestone in our journey towards enabling India’s energy transition. This project is a testament to our resilience, innovation and sustainability, and we are committed to supporting the National Green Hydrogen Mission. We look forward to swiftly commissioning the facility and delivering clean ammonia to Paradeep Phosphates Limited, thereby contributing to India’s rapidly evolving green energy ecosystem.”
ACME Cleantech Solutions will begin delivering green ammonia to Paradeep Phosphates Limited in 36 months from the signing of the Green Ammonia Purchase Agreement (GAPA) with SECI. This project is a critical step forward in ACME’s strategy to lead India’s renewable energy transformation and marks a major milestone in the commercialization of green hydrogen derivatives such as ammonia.
