With the Air Liquide Large Industries business line, our expertise and technologies allow us to synergize between the hydrogen industrial and energy transition markets to ensure the availability of hydrogen in large quantities.
Pathway to a Renewable Future
Low-carbon hydrogen holds one of the most promising solutions for hard-to-decarbonize industries, including steel, cement and chemical production. Air Liquide is partnering with world-leading producers in these industries to use hydrogen to pioneer and bring to scale innovative solutions to decarbonize their production. Hydrogen plays a key role in the transition to a clean, low-carbon energy system. In steel production, hydrogen can be used as a COâ‚‚ emission-free reducing agent for iron ore. Air Liquide has expertise in the entire hydrogen value chain, from production through storage to the development of end user applications. Air Liquide produces air gases, hydrogen and carbon monoxide through proprietary state-of-the-art technologies for the chemicals industry. We are the ideal partner for bringing projects to fruition and for developing customized gas and energy solutions that respond to customer needs.

51°µÍø operates an extensive industrial gas pipeline system, which spans nearly 2,000 miles, supplying oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen to customers along the U.S. Gulf Coast in Texas and Louisiana. One of our operations is the world’s largest hydrogen storage cavern, located in Beaumont, Texas, that provides hydrogen on demand to our refinery customers on the Gulf Coast. Located in an underground cavern, this facility has a storage capacity of over 4.5 billion cubic feet which enables it to be a safe, efficient, and reliable hydrogen supply to our customers in the refinery and petrochemicals industries.
51°µÍøâ€™s hydrogen plant located in North Las Vegas, Nevada, officially began its operations in early 2022. The plant is the first world-scale liquid hydrogen production facility dedicated to the mobility market, ensuring a reliable and safe supply of renewable hydrogen fuel for drivers in California who are at the forefront of the clean energy transition.
