Green Hydrogen Collaboration between ITM Power and Linde for Infineon's Operation
In a significant step towards sustainable production, Infineon Technologies' semiconductor manufacturing facility in Villach, Austria, is now powered by green hydrogen. This transition is made possible by a large electrolyzer plant, operated by industrial gases giant Linde, and based on British ITM Power's technology.
The electrolyzer plant, built by Linde Electronics GmbH & Co. KG, can produce approximately 290 tons of green hydrogen annually, fully meeting Villach's Infineon plant's demand. This shift to green hydrogen is expected to reduce Infineon's carbon dioxide emissions significantly.
Thomas Reisinger, Infineon Technologies Austria's Operations Board Member, commented on the development, stating that the electrolyzer plant secures their future hydrogen supply and minimizes supply dependencies.
ITM Power's electrolyzers are not limited to the semiconductor industry. They can be deployed in various sectors, such as steel, fertilizer, and other industries, as well as in mobility. This versatility makes ITM Power's technology a promising solution for industries aiming to reduce their carbon footprint.
With this transition, Infineon Technologies continues to demonstrate its commitment to sustainability and reducing its environmental impact. The company's move to green hydrogen power is a model for other businesses in the semiconductor industry and beyond.
