Industries

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 Italy’s Hydrogen Market

Italy's hydrogen strategy targets industrial decarbonization across its chemical, refining, and steel sectors concentrated in Lombardy and Southern Italy. With significant solar resources in the south and industrial demand in the north, Italy is pursuing both green and blue hydrogen pathways.
