Prioritizing Green Hydrogen: The Smart Path to Decarbonization

(And how H2Electro is leading the charge. 🚀)

🔹 Green hydrogen isn’t a universal remedy; its strategic application is essential for impactful decarbonization.

The Green Hydrogen Hierarchy, developed by Ramboll, offers a straightforward framework to guide our approach:

1️)Direct Electrification: If we can power something with clean electricity, we should.

2️)Target Hard-to-Abate Sectors: Focus green hydrogen use on industries where electrification is challenging, such as steel, chemicals, and fertilizers.

3️)Avoid Misapplication: Discourage the use of green hydrogen in areas where direct electrification is possible and more efficient.

Why does this matter?

Hydrogen production requires significant renewable energy, and we must use it where it has the biggest impact.

In alignment with this hierarchy, H2Electro specializes in producing high-efficiency Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOECs) designed for hard-to-abate sectors. Our SOECs operate at elevated temperatures (800–850°C), achieving superior efficiency by utilizing industrial waste heat and enabling co-electrolysis of steam and CO₂ into syngas—a precursor for sustainable fuels and chemicals.

By focusing on these critical industries, H2Electro ensures that green hydrogen is applied where it delivers the most significant environmental benefits.
