Industries

Remote Site Self-Sufficiency

Mines often operate far from hydrogen supply infrastructure. On-site electrolysis with IONZERA membranes, powered by solar or wind, enables hydrogen self-sufficiency at remote locations.

Fuel Cell Haul Truck Support

Major mining companies are trialing hydrogen fuel cell haul trucks. On-site production provides the fueling infrastructure these vehicles need without long-distance H2 transport.

Robust Performance

IONZERA's 2.7 MPa tensile strength and stable PSU-TiO2-GO matrix provide the mechanical and chemical durability needed for continuous operation in demanding mine site environments.

Mining Operations Hydrogen in France’s Hydrogen Market

France has committed EUR 7.2 billion to its hydrogen strategy, targeting 6.5 GW of electrolyser capacity by 2030. With strong nuclear baseload power and growing renewable capacity, France has a cost-competitive electricity base for green hydrogen production. Industrial hydrogen demand from refineries and chemical plants in Lyon, Marseille, and the Rhone valley drives near-term electrolysis deployment.

IONZERA's 3x lower resistance improves electrolyser efficiency, complementing France's low-carbon electricity advantage. For French OEMs and project developers, IONZERA offers diversified sourcing with competitive pricing from Indian manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose IONZERA for mining operations hydrogen in France?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for mining operations hydrogen applications in France. IONZERA's 3x lower resistance improves electrolyser efficiency, complementing France's low-carbon electricity advantage.

How does IONZERA fit France's hydrogen decarbonization strategy?

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the electricity consumption per kg of hydrogen, improving the economics of electrolysis powered by France's nuclear and renewable electricity mix. This directly supports France's 6.5 GW electrolyser deployment target.

Can IONZERA be delivered to French industrial hydrogen projects?

Yes. G-Hexa ships IONZERA globally via air freight (5-7 days to France) or sea freight for volume orders. Technical support and sample requests are handled directly by the G-Hexa team.
