Reliance Industries (RIL) has signed a long-term supply and purchase agreement valued at over $3 billion with South Korea’s Samsung C&T Corporation to supply green ammonia for 15 years, starting from the second half of the financial year (FY) 2029.

This agreement is the first in a series of long-term offtake partnerships to support the scale-up of RIL’s New Energy platform.

The New Energy platform includes renewable energy, energy storage, green hydrogen, and downstream green fuels and chemicals. It is supported by in-house manufacturing of critical clean-energy technologies.

RIL said the indigenization of critical clean energy technologies, including solar modules, battery energy storage systems, and electrolyzer systems, is a key pillar for the New Energy platform’s ecosystem.

The company aims to deliver competitive, scalable, and reliable green energy solutions to the global markets by integrating these capabilities within a single ecosystem. It also aims to enhance the local industrial base with such initiatives.

Last April, Reliance  won PFC Consulting’s tender to set up a transmission system to evacuate 3 GW of power for green hydrogen/ammonia manufacturing projects in the Kandla area, Gujarat.

In September 2025, Reliance said it plans to produce and export green ammonia, methanol, and sustainable aviation fuel. By 2032, RIL aims to achieve a green hydrogen production capacity of three million tons per annum.

Recently, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) notified standards for green ammonia and green methanol under the National Green Hydrogen Mission, establishing emission thresholds and certification frameworks for both fuels.

The Union Cabinet had approved the National Green Hydrogen Mission in 2023 to facilitate demand creation, production, utilization, and export of green hydrogen with an initial outlay of ₹197.44 billion (~$2.16 billion).

In December 2025, MNRE clarified that renewable energy projects supplying power exclusively to green hydrogen and green ammonia developers who have been awarded capacity under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition Program’s Mode-2A and Mode-2B will be eligible for a relaxation from the requirement to use solar cells from the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers List-II.
