Global project portfolio and strategic expansion
Ohmium has progressed from prototypes to 10 deployments across Europe, Asia, and the United States, partnering with clients in mobility, logistics, infrastructure, refineries, and manufacturing. Two significant European refinery projects are currently underway, with equipment shipped and commissioning expected in 2026.“ With green hydrogen approaching cost parity with grey hydrogen in Europe, the case for refineries to switch is becoming increasingly compelling,” says Dr. Tacke.
Ohmium’ s work with the Indian government is important to the company’ s global expansion. Through the National Green Hydrogen Mission’ s SIGHT program, which targets five million tons of capacity by 2030, Ohmium has been awarded 137 MW( megawatts) across TRANCHE I and TRANCHE 2.“ Our Bangalore and Tamil Nadu sites house assembly and stack production facilities that are designed for a capacity of 2 GW and are built to scale further,” Dr. Tacke confirms.“ New collaborations in India and Europe, particularly for refinery applications and ammonia production, offer major growth opportunities as we expand.”
Beyond hydrogen production: grid stability services
A key differentiator for Ohmium is its PEM technology’ s ability to actively contribute to grid stability, positioning electrolyzers as intelligent grid assets rather than passive loads.“ An electrolyzer should be a wellintegrated element within the grid,” Dr. Tacke explains.“ Ohmium PEM technology can follow grid fluctuations and aid in grid stabilization.”
Ohmium’ s technology features dynamic ramping that responds to solar and wind output variations, maximizing renewable energy utilization to optimize supply and demand. This flexibility is
