Industries

Kiln Fuel Switching

Green hydrogen can partially replace fossil fuels in cement kilns, directly reducing combustion-related CO2 emissions without major modifications to existing kiln systems.

CO2 Utilization Enabler

Cement plants produce concentrated CO2 from calcination. Green hydrogen enables conversion of this CO2 to synthetic fuels or chemicals via Power-to-X pathways.

Cost-Effective H2 Supply

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the cost of green hydrogen, improving the economics of both fuel switching and CCU pathways for cement decarbonization.

Cement Industry Decarbonization in Sweden’s Hydrogen Market

Sweden is pioneering fossil-free steelmaking, with hydrogen-based direct reduction iron (H-DRI) projects requiring massive green hydrogen supply. The country's abundant hydropower and wind resources provide low-cost renewable electricity for electrolysis. Gothenburg and northern Sweden are the focal points for hydrogen-intensive industrial transformation.

IONZERA's efficiency improvements directly reduce the hydrogen production cost critical for making H-DRI steelmaking economically viable against conventional blast furnace routes.
