EIL and IIT Kanpur advances for MoA to research for Hydrogen Production
The proposed project aims to overcome this by converting hydrogen into ammonia through conventional processes, enabling safe and efficient transport. At the point of use, solar energy will be harnessed to crack the ammonia back into hydrogen, meeting localized industrial demand.

Engineers India Limited (EIL) and IIT Kanpur, with a long-standing MoU to jointly develop futuristic and breakthrough technologies, have signed a new Memorandum of Association (MoA) to advance research on Catalytic Solar-Thermal Decomposition of Ammonia for Hydrogen Production. While hydrogen is widely regarded as the fuel of the future, its safe transportation remains a major global challenge.
The proposed project aims to overcome this by converting hydrogen into ammonia through conventional processes, enabling safe and efficient transport. At the point of use, solar energy will be harnessed to crack the ammonia back into hydrogen, meeting localized industrial demand.
This innovative approach is particularly suited for arid desert regions and concentrated solar-thermal applications, offering a sustainable pathway for large-scale hydrogen deployment.
The EIL–IIT Kanpur collaboration is poised to accelerate the transition from laboratory research to scalable, market-ready solutions, paving the way for a cleaner, hydrogen-powered future.
