Material Solutions for Green Hydrogen

Syensqo: at the heart of the green hydrogen economy

In our journey towards a sustainable future, Syensqo stands at the forefront of the green hydrogen economy, pioneering innovative solutions that are crucial to achieving the United Nations ambitious goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. This target underscores the urgent need for regulators, industry and the public to address the world’s climate crisis with solutions that significantly reduce carbon emissions. We won’t reach net-zero targets with electric batteries or renewables alone. The best solution will need a combination of energy sources and technologies.  

We believe hydrogen plays a starring role in addressing this challenge. Hydrogen solutions can rapidly transition global energy systems enabling rapid transitions from fossil fuels, to low-carbon and, ultimately, to carbon-free fuels. This energy carrier is crucial for the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors such as heavy-duty transportation and other emissions-intensive industries such as steel manufacturing.  Chemistry is the key to transforming hydrogen into a green energy solution for the future, and Syensqo is at the forefront of developing solutions based on our specialty materials to drive the green hydrogen economy forward.

The green hydrogen revolution is being realized with Syensqo's advanced materials for hydrogen production, infrastructure and mobility. Our products and solutions, used within electrolyzers, fuel cells and other components of hydrogen systems support today’s leading hydrogen technology platforms. Our innovation focuses on enhancements to system durability, efficiency, safety and total cost of ownership to help our customers improve the viability and scalability of green hydrogen technology. As the green hydrogen economy accelerates, we remain committed to partnering with our customers to drive this transformation forward.

This commitment is reflected in the recently launched HYRA—our dedicated brand of hydrogen-grade polymers, specifically engineered to meet the rigorous performance, durability, and safety demands of fuel cells and electrolyzers.

A broad portfolio of specialty materials 

At Syensqo, we offer a diverse range of specialty materials, including ionomers and other high-performance materials that are essential across various stages of hydrogen systems from the core, to the stack, and extending to the plant. Common applications include membranes, electrode binders, gaskets, diaphragms, cell frames and end plates, in addition to uses in thermal management and air systems.

Advanced solutions for hydrogen systems and components 

Syensqo's cutting-edge solutions for hydrogen production facilities, infrastructure and mobility play are pivotal in reducing society’s reliance on fossil fuels, thereby facilitating the transition to a carbon-neutral economy. Used within electrolyzers, fuel cells and other components of hydrogen systems, Syensqo's products and solutions support today’s leading hydrogen technology platforms. Our innovations are focused on enhancing system durability, efficiency, safety and total cost of ownership, helping our customers improve the viability and scalability of green hydrogen technologies. 

Committed to a faster transition to green hydrogen

At Syensqo, our commitment is to enable a faster transition to a green hydrogen economy for a clean planet. Our journey began in early 2021 when we launched a green hydrogen platform, bringing together all of the innovative materials and chemical solutions we offer to advance the emerging hydrogen economy.

By creating this platform, we have significantly increased the resources dedicated to this emerging market, including efforts in research and innovation. Syensqo has engaged fully dedicated teams from research, engineering, sales and marketing to work together in crafting our added value proposition to the future green hydrogen market.

Our teams are strategically located across continents, from the Americas to EMEA, to Asia. With a global reach and local presence, our focus is on building close relationships with our customers and co-developing solutions tailored to their unique requirements, continually pushing the boundaries on performance, safety, sustainability and cost.

Together with our customers, we are enabling the energy transition!
