Our major projects

At the heart of the Port-Jérôme industrial basin in Normandy, Air Liquide is building one of the world's largest PEM electrolyzers. With a capacity of 200 MW, this large-scale facility aims to produce renewable and low-carbon hydrogen on a large scale, to accelerate the energy transition in industry and mobility.

In 2024, Air Liquide inaugurated a new renewable hydrogen production unit through electrolysis in Oberhausen, Germany. With a capacity of 20 MW, the Trailblazer electrolyzer, which is now connected to Air Liquide’s pipeline network, is gradually supplying hydrogen to local industrial and mobility customers.

Air Liquide accelerates the decarbonization of the Tianjin industrial basin in China. Two oxygen production units operated by the Group have been electrified and are now supplied with renewable energy following the signature of a multi-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) in China. Key outcome: 800,000 tonnes of CO₂ avoided.

The Porthos project is a large-scale initiative aiming at significantly reducing the environmental footprint of Europe's largest industrial port, Rotterdam in the Netherlands. Air Liquide is playing a leading role in the development of carbon capture, enabling the production of hydrogen with a significantly lower carbon footprint. Objective: to decarbonize this port area without deindustrializing it, thanks to an ambitious Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) solution.
