HYDROGEN VALLEY

Green Hydrogen Production for Chemical Processing in Lyon

Electricity accounts for 60-80% of the levelized cost of hydrogen. Lyon and the Rhone-Alpes corridor form one of France's primary hydrogen valleys, combining chemical industry demand with nuclear and renewable electricity for electrolysis.

Lower Levelized Cost of Hydrogen

By reducing the voltage drop across the membrane by approximately 0.08V per cell, IONZERA lowers the specific energy consumption (kWh/kg H2), directly cutting the electricity component of LCOH.

Bankable Performance Data

IONZERA specifications are measured using standardized electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 30 wt% KOH, providing the verified performance data that project financiers and EPC contractors require.

Supply Chain Diversification

Sourcing membranes from G-Hexa in India diversifies the supply chain away from sole-source European dependence, reducing project risk for GW-scale deployments.

Scalable Manufacturing

IONZERA's mesh-free production process is inherently simpler to scale than mesh-reinforced alternatives, supporting the rapid capacity ramp needed for the green hydrogen buildout.

Green Hydrogen Production in Lyon

Lyon and the Rhone-Alpes corridor form one of France's primary hydrogen valleys, combining chemical industry demand with nuclear and renewable electricity for electrolysis. The region hosts hydrogen mobility projects and industrial decarbonization initiatives.

For Lyon's hydrogen valley projects, IONZERA provides 3x lower resistance than conventional separators, improving electrolysis efficiency. Air freight from India takes 5-7 days, with competitive pricing from Indian manufacturing.
