Industries

More Methane from Every Biogas Plant

Raw biogas contains 35-45% CO2. Adding green H2 via methanation converts this CO2 to CH4, increasing biomethane output by up to 70% without additional feedstock.

Lower H2 Production Cost

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the cost of the hydrogen input, the primary variable cost in biological methanation, improving the economics of biogas upgrading.

Compact Electrolyser Integration

IONZERA's thin profile enables compact electrolyser stacks that fit within the footprint constraints of existing biogas plant sites, simplifying retrofit installations.

Biogas Upgrading in Spain’s Hydrogen Market

Spain's abundant solar resources and industrial base make it a natural hub for green hydrogen production in Europe. The Basque Country and Catalonia host key industrial hydrogen consumers in steel, refining, and chemicals. Spain targets 4 GW of electrolyser capacity by 2030, supported by some of Europe's lowest renewable electricity costs.

IONZERA's high efficiency maximizes the hydrogen output per kWh of Spanish solar electricity, improving the economics of solar-to-hydrogen projects. Competitive pricing from Indian manufacturing strengthens the cost case for Spanish green hydrogen.
