The CSIR-Institute of Minerals and Materials Technology (CSIR-IMMT) will lead a Rs 207-crore national pilot project to develop India's first direct reduced iron (DRI) plant running entirely on hydrogen, aimed at reducing carbon emissions from the steel sector, a senior official said. The 20-tonne-per-day pilot project has received in-principle approval from the Ministry of Steel and the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE). It will receive Rs 113 crore in government support under the National Green Hydrogen Mission, with the remaining funding to be contributed by consortium partners. CSIR-IMMT Director Ramanuj Narayan told PTI that the facility is expected to be completed by August 2029 and will focus on developing and demonstrating hydrogen-based DRI technology suited to Indian conditions, particularly the use of domestic iron ore. The consortium led by CSIR-IMMT includes Godavari Power and Ispat Ltd, Lloyd Steel, Jindal Stainless and Thyssenkrupp Industries India. Tata St
