Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath of Uttar Pradesh made a visit to the Komekurayama Hydrogen Facility located in Yamanashi, Japan, on Thursday, February 26. During his time at the facility, he had the opportunity to observe the sophisticated Power-to-Gas system, which is vital for the generation of green hydrogen. This visit underscored the state’s focus on adopting sustainable energy initiatives and innovative technologies.

Insights into Clean Energy Technologies

During his visit, CM Yogi Adityanath commended the forward-thinking strategies being employed at the Yamanashi facility. He emphasized the importance of adapting these practices to facilitate the transition towards clean mobility and sustainable economic growth. In his post on X, he expressed admiration for the pioneering efforts being undertaken in green hydrogen and clean energy technology, highlighting the facility’s potential to serve as a blueprint for Uttar Pradesh’s future initiatives.

Power-to-Gas System Aims for Carbon Neutrality

The Power-to-Gas system showcased at the facility plays a pivotal role in Japan’s energy transition, as it utilizes solar power for hydrogen production. The hydrogen generated is subsequently employed as fuel for boilers, contributing to a significant reduction in carbon dioxide emissions. The collaborative effort behind the facility includes Yamanashi Prefecture partnering with ten leading corporate entities, such as Suntory Holdings, Toray, and Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings. This project is set to achieve carbon neutrality by 2026, broadening the usage of green hydrogen in the region.
