WHY ON-SITE

Hydrogen where you use it. Not where you buy it.

Lower cost per Nm³

Generate at point of use and remove cylinder logistics, rentals and price escalation from your operating cost.

Supply you control

No stock-outs, no transporter dependence. Hydrogen availability becomes a plant utility, not a procurement risk.

Safer by design

Low on-site inventory, engineered ventilation and interlocks, and systems designed to comply with Indian statutory requirements including PESO.

Lower emissions

Renewable-powered electrolysis reduces Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions — green manufacturing your customers and regulators can see.

PHARMA FOCUS

Hydrogen is Critical to Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

India's pharmaceutical industry is among the largest in the world. Hydrogen is a critical process gas in API synthesis, hydrogenation reactions and catalytic processes — where purity, consistency and continuous supply are non-negotiable.

Hydrogenation

Saturation of double bonds in organic synthesis for API intermediates.

Reduction Reactions

Converting nitro groups to amines in pharmaceutical synthesis.

Catalytic Processes

Palladium and platinum-catalysed reactions requiring ultra-pure H₂.

Continuous Manufacturing

Uninterrupted hydrogen supply for 24/7 production lines.

Regulatory Compliance

Consistent purity documentation for GMP and FDA requirements.

On-site systems eliminate batch-to-batch purity variation — a critical quality advantage.

VALUE PROPOSITION

The Economics of On-Site Generation

SPAN on-site hydrogen systems deliver measurable operational, financial and sustainability advantages from day one.

On-Site Generation

Hydrogen produced where it is consumed. Zero transport dependency.

Lower Operating Cost

Eliminate cylinder purchase, delivery and handling costs.

Continuous Supply

24/7 on-demand production. No stockouts, no delays.

Consistent Purity

99.9997% purity, every batch, every day.

ESG Compliance

Green hydrogen reduces Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.

Safety

Eliminate high-pressure cylinder storage and handling risks.

Green Manufacturing

Demonstrate environmental leadership to customers and regulators.

Long-Term Partnership

SPAN Hydrogen provides AMC, remote monitoring and lifecycle support.

SUPPLY ROUTES

The same molecule. Two operating models.

What changes when hydrogen stops arriving on a truck and starts being generated beside the process that uses it.

Dimension Cylinder / merchant supply On-site generation
Cost per Nm³ Carries logistics, rentals and price escalation Generated at point of use
Supply control Depends on transporters and stock levels A plant utility under your control
On-site inventory High-pressure cylinder banks on site Low inventory by design
Purity As delivered Up to 99.999% at your outlet
Compliance Handling and storage of bulk deliveries Engineered to Indian statutory requirements including PESO

QUESTIONS

Questions plant teams ask.

It depends on your demand profile, utilities and current supply cost — which is exactly what the Readiness Assessment models. You receive an indicative cost per Nm³ on-site versus your current supply, with payback direction.

Hydrogen is safe when it is engineered to be. On-site generation keeps inventory low by design, and every SPAN plant carries engineered ventilation, interlocks and layout studies — designed to comply with Indian statutory requirements including PESO.

Modular PEM systems are compact, respond quickly where demand varies by batch, and generate pressurised, high-purity hydrogen under automated control. HYDGEN provides the PEM technology core; Span Hydrogen engineers the complete system around your duty cycle, footprint and lifecycle cost.

A structured, confidential review of your hydrogen demand, site and economics, prepared by SPAN engineers. You keep the assessment either way — if on-site does not pay back, we will say so.

Yes. Preventive maintenance, spares, stack health monitoring and performance restoration cover SPAN and third-party plants alike.
