Verdagy, a player in green hydrogen electrolysis, has announced a strategic collaboration with Petron Scientech. Petron Scientech is a company with over 35 years of expertise in renewable and sustainable chemical and biofuel process technologies.
The partnership will leverage Verdagy’s cutting-edge eDynamic® electrolyzers to produce over 45 kilotons per annum (KTA) of green hydrogen.
The hydrogen will integrate into Petron’s first biorefinery project to produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), renewable diesel, and e-methanol.
The project will reduce carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions by 500 KTA by incorporating green hydrogen.
Combined with the biorefinery’s overall impact, the project aims to cut two megatons of CO2e annually, leading to a cumulative reduction of over 60 megatons throughout its lifespan.
Driving Carbon Reduction in Biorefineries
Petron Scientech CEO Yogi Sarin said, “Petron is developing biorefineries with low carbon intensity scores, capable of reducing millions of tons of carbon emissions compared to fossil feedstock-based fuels, chemicals, and plastics. We are working closely with leading airlines for SAF offtake agreements and with shipping companies for e-methanol produced using green hydrogen. We sought a partner with advanced green hydrogen and oxygen solutions that could integrate efficiently with our biorefineries, scale to multiple gigawatts, and remain capital-efficient. Verdagy perfectly fits these requirements, and we are eager to collaborate on global projects.”
Verdagy’s Mission: Green Hydrogen at Fossil Parity Costs
Verdagy CEO Marty Neese added, “We’re thrilled to collaborate with Petron to expand the SAF and biofuels markets. Our mission is to deliver green hydrogen at fossil parity costs, without subsidies, within five years. This will accelerate mass adoption and significantly lower carbon emissions. We design our eDynamic® electrolyzers to work seamlessly with renewable, intermittent energy sources. With industry-leading efficiency and an extensive operating range, they maximize asset utilization, achieving the lowest levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) globally”.
Manufacturing Green Hydrogen Solutions in Silicon Valley
The partnership will fuel several biorefinery projects to produce SAF, e-methanol, and bio-chemicals.
Verdagy’s 1 GW electrolyzer factory began operations in Silicon Valley in 2024. It will manufacture the electrolyzers required for these transformative projects.
As per the press release, this collaboration marks a significant milestone. Both companies are now poised to lead the charge in creating scalable and sustainable solutions for a low-carbon future.
