Lummus Technology and Advanced Ionics break ground on electrolyzer pilot

In Texas, Lummus Technology and Advanced Ionics broke ground recently on a pilot plant for Advanced Ionics’ cutting-edge electrolyzer technology. The pilot will be located at Lummus Technology’s R&D facility in Pasadena, Texas, where Lummus will operate the electrolyzer and manage the balance of plant systems. Advanced Ionics will provide its innovative electrolyzer, designed to deliver high-efficiency hydrogen production with reduced energy requirements.

In 2024, Lummus and Advanced Ionics established a partnership to advance production and commercialization of cost-effective and sustainable hydrogen technology. The pilot project builds on this partnership and will serve as a critical step toward commercial deployment. Green hydrogen is widely recognized as a key enabler for decarbonizing industrial processes, transportation and power generation.
