Indian multinational conglomerate Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has secured a major engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract from Saudi Arabia’s NEOM to work on the world’s largest green hydrogen project. The contract was signed between NEOM Green Hydrogen Company (NGHC) — an equal joint venture created by ACWA Power, Air Products, and NEOM — its EPC contractor and system integrator Air Products, (and joint venture partner), and sub-EPC construction partner L&T, NGHC announced.
