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 United Kingdom’s Hydrogen Market

The UK targets 10 GW of low-carbon hydrogen production capacity by 2030, with a mix of electrolytic and CCUS-enabled hydrogen. Scotland's Aberdeen is emerging as a hydrogen hub leveraging North Sea wind resources and existing oil and gas infrastructure. Industrial clusters in Humberside and Teesside are early movers in hydrogen adoption.

IONZERA provides UK hydrogen projects with a high-performance membrane that improves wind-to-hydrogen economics. Supply chain diversification away from single-source European membrane suppliers strengthens UK project resilience.
