Maruti Suzuki Share Price in Focus; Commissions 300 kW Green Hydrogen Plant in Manesar, Haryana

Maruti Suzuki India has commissioned a 300-kW green hydrogen electrolyser plant at its manufacturing facility in Manesar, Haryana, as per an exchange filing.  

The plant was commissioned on 24 September 2026 as a pilot project and will produce hydrogen for use in manufacturing operations.  

Using Unused Solar Power 

The plant will use solar electricity generated at the Manesar facility to produce hydrogen. The company said solar power generated during holidays, when it would otherwise remain unused, will be used for this purpose. 

The hydrogen will be stored and used later in the manufacturing process. Before use, it will be blended with natural gasand used as process fuel at the facility.  

Expansion to Other Facilities 

Maruti Suzuki noted that the Manesar project will help it assess the use of green hydrogen in manufacturing. Based on the experience from the pilot, the company plans to expand the use of the technology at its manufacturing facilities in Haryana and Gujarat.  

The company is also working on other energy projects. At its Kharkhoda facility, a 10 tonnes per day biogas plant is in the advanced stage of construction and is to be commissioned during FY 2026-27.  

A 1 MWh battery energy storage system has already been commissioned there.  

Other Measures to Cut Emissions 

Maruti Suzuki has started using compressed biogas as a process fuel. Its board has also approved four CBG projects, with a budget of ₹561 crore.  

The company is using solar power generated at its facilities as well as renewable power purchased through government sources and third-party agreements.  

Emissions Target 

The company said its manufacturing operations currently account for about 615,000 tonnes of carbon emissions. It has set a target to bring this down to 266,000 tonnes by FY 2030-31 through the use of different energy technologies.
