Reduce Scope 1 Emissions
On-site green hydrogen from IONZERA-equipped electrolysers directly replaces SMR-derived grey hydrogen, cutting refinery Scope 1 CO2 emissions from hydrogen production.
Continuous High-Volume Operation
Refinery hydrogen demand is continuous and large-volume. IONZERA's mechanical strength and chemical stability support the 24/7, high-utilization operation that refineries require.
Compatible with Existing Infrastructure
Hydrogen from alkaline electrolysis integrates with existing refinery hydrogen networks after standard purification, requiring no modifications to downstream hydrotreating or hydrocracking units.
Refinery Hydrogen Supply in Germany’s Hydrogen Market
Germany's National Hydrogen Strategy positions the country as a global leader in hydrogen technology. With EUR 9 billion allocated to hydrogen infrastructure, German electrolyser OEMs and project developers are scaling rapidly. The industrial heartland of North Rhine-Westphalia, combined with hydrogen hubs in Hamburg and Bavaria, creates sustained demand for high-performance AWE membranes that can reduce production costs.
For German electrolyser manufacturers currently dependent on Zirfon from Belgium, IONZERA offers supply chain diversification with superior technical performance. With 3x lower area resistance and 20% thinner profile, IONZERA enables German OEMs to differentiate their electrolysers on efficiency. Competitive pricing from Indian manufacturing reduces stack BOM costs without compromising quality.
