Green Hydrogen Catalyst Advances Toward Industrial-Scale Production
Swedish startup Ionautics has advanced its ultra-low iridium catalyst technology toward full-scale production after five years of funded research, while Europe's largest green hydrogen plant secures 300 MW of electrolyzer contracts for southern Spain.
Key Takeaways
- Ionautics' vapor-deposited iridium coatings achieve strong performance at less than 0.1 mg per square centimeter, far below conventional loadings
- Reducing iridium use per unit area is critical as global iridium supply is only 7 to 8 tonnes per year
- thyssenkrupp nucera signed a 300 MW alkaline electrolyzer contract for Europe's largest green hydrogen plant in Spain
- A second 260 MW electrolyzer contract in India targets green ammonia export to Europe
