Replace Diesel Generators

Hydrogen fuel cells provide clean, quiet backup power. On-site electrolysis with IONZERA produces the H2 fuel needed, eliminating diesel storage, emissions, and noise at data center sites.

Efficient H2 Production

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the cost of producing and storing hydrogen for backup power, making fuel cell backup more competitive with diesel alternatives.

Sustainability Reporting

Green hydrogen from renewable-powered electrolysis supports data center operators' Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions reduction targets and sustainability commitments.

Data Center Backup Power in Belgium’s Hydrogen Market

Belgium plays a strategic role in Europe's hydrogen landscape, both as a technology hub and transit corridor. The port of Antwerp is a major chemical and refining cluster with significant hydrogen demand. Belgium is also home to Zirfon manufacturing, making it a natural market for demonstrating IONZERA's superior performance credentials.

In Zirfon's home market, IONZERA offers a compelling technical alternative with 3x lower area resistance. Belgian electrolyser developers and research institutions can directly benchmark IONZERA against the incumbent, validating the performance improvements in their own testing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose IONZERA for data center backup power in Belgium?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for data center backup power applications in Belgium. In Zirfon's home market, IONZERA offers a compelling technical alternative with 3x lower area resistance.

Why consider IONZERA when Zirfon is produced locally in Belgium?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower area resistance than Zirfon PERL UTP 500, enabling significantly more efficient electrolysis. For Belgian projects prioritizing performance and competitive TCO, IONZERA provides measurable advantages even accounting for shipping from India.

Can IONZERA be tested alongside Zirfon in the same electrolyser?

Yes. IONZERA is designed as a drop-in replacement for Zirfon in standard AWE stacks. It operates in the same 30 wt% KOH electrolyte at up to 45 degrees C, enabling direct side-by-side performance comparison.
