Air Liquide Expands Industrial Decarbonization Push in Gujarat with New ASU and CFS Facilities

Air Liquide is gearing up to grow its footprint in India with a brand-new Air Separation Unit and Cylinder Filling Station coming to Bhagapura, Gujarat. This new facility is expected to be up and running by 2027, and it’s a big move—once it’s operational, it’ll actually double the current production capacity in the region.

Powering Critical Industries—and the Future

This isn’t just about expansion. It means a more reliable local supply of high-purity industrial and medical gases for booming industries like automotive, electronics, battery manufacturing, and healthcare. The impact? Smoother operations, faster turnarounds, and better support for both patients and production lines alike.

Clean Energy Integration Into the Mix

Here’s the exciting part: Starting in 2029, the facility will start pulling power from renewable energy sources. This step forward plays right into Air Liquide’s bigger mission of carbon neutrality by 2050—and it’s a perfect fit with Gujarat’s Wind-Solar Hybrid Power Policy. It’s a win for both sustainable energy and smart, forward-thinking industrial growth.

Boosting Local Impact—Logistics, Jobs, and Clean Growth

Besides ramping up supply, this project is set to bring several other good things to the table—like more efficient distribution and supply logistics, new job opportunities, and stronger healthcare provisions across Gujarat. It also helps put the state firmly on the map as a rising star in industrial decarbonization and a hub for low-carbon, clean-tech growth.

All in all, it’s a move that blends innovation and impact—bolstering both the local economy and the global push toward renewable energy integration and a future powered by clean, reliable technologies.
