Ohmium International has announced the official launch of its new gigafactory in Doddaballapura, just outside of Bengaluru, India. Covering close to 14,000 square meters of production space, the state-of-the-art manufacturing facility is ramping up to ship 2 gigawatts (GW) of fully assembled and tested electrolyzer systems to meet the demands of Ohmium’s global project pipeline.

“The ribbon cutting at our new gigafactory marks a major milestone for Ohmium and enables us to deliver green H₂ solutions to our growing pipeline of customers across India and around the world,” said Arne Ballantine, Ohmium CEO. “2GW of electrolyzers can abate 4 MMtpy of CO₂, equivalent to the CO₂ captured by 180-MM trees. And for us it’s just the beginning.”

The new gigafactory is Ohmium’s second manufacturing facility in India, and its first to bring together key manufacturing, assembly, quality assurance, testing, warehouse and shipping facilities under one roof.

“Ohmium’s unique hyper modular PEM electrolyzers are designed for mass production and easy assembly,” explained Ashwin Varma, Ohmium COO. “By implementing the best practices of standardized, high quality and efficient manufacturing, we can build systems that achieve superior performance at a very competitive cost.  With this standardized approach, our factory production can scale up quickly to meet growing demand, with additional cost savings as capacity expands.”
