SECI extends bid deadline for green ammonia tender
The Solar Energy Corporation of India Limited (
SECI
), a
Navratna Central Public Sector Enterprise
operating under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, has announced an extension for the
bid submission deadline
of its tender for the production and supply of green ammonia.
As per an official press release, the new deadline for bid submissions is June 30, 2025.
Initially issued on June 7, 2024, this tender is a crucial component of the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) Scheme. Its primary objective is to facilitate the annual production and long-term supply of 724,000 metric tonnes of green ammonia to 13 designated fertiliser plants across India.
As the implementing agency, SECI will play a pivotal role in aggregating demand and establishing long-term offtake agreements with the chosen green ammonia producers.
These agreements are designed to provide commercial certainty for a duration of 10 years, thereby fostering market development for green hydrogen derivatives in the country.
