Reduce H2 Cost for DRI

Direct reduction of iron consumes approximately 55 kg of hydrogen per tonne of DRI. IONZERA's lower electricity consumption per kg H2 directly improves the economics of H2-DRI steelmaking.

GW-Scale Membrane Supply

A single green steel plant may require hundreds of MW of electrolyser capacity. IONZERA's scalable, mesh-free manufacturing is designed to meet these large-volume membrane demands.

Reliable Continuous Output

Steel furnaces operate continuously. IONZERA's mechanical strength of 2.7 MPa and chemically stable PSU-TiO2-GO matrix support the uninterrupted electrolyser operation that steel plants demand.

Steel Decarbonization in Chennai

Chennai and the Tamil Nadu industrial corridor are home to major automotive manufacturing, petroleum refining, and chemical processing operations. The state's aggressive renewable energy targets and industrial hydrogen demand make it a key market for alkaline electrolysis deployment. Tamil Nadu's growing wind and solar capacity provides renewable electricity for green hydrogen production.

Chennai is just 1-2 days from the IONZERA manufacturing facility in Bengaluru, providing the fastest delivery outside the manufacturing city itself. Tamil Nadu's automotive and refinery sectors benefit from IONZERA's efficiency improvements for on-site hydrogen production at competitive domestic pricing.
