Houston, Texas, United States- A new company, Protio, was established to produce green steel and green hydrogen based chemicals. Protio specializes in a decentralized model that will offer partners a sustainable alternative to carbon-emitting materials, feedstocks and energy carriers, helping them achieve their net zero carbon goals. Protio’s mission is to positively impact the environment and help countries, industries, and communities decarbonize and reduce their impact on climate change.
“Protio offers a unique capability in that we focus on building interlinking synergistic technologies be they green hydrogen to reduce steel more efficiently while reducing emissions by over 96%, or as a building block for a new way of producing sustainable chemicals.” said Shaun Kizewski, CEO of Protio. “Our model provides the flexibility for our experienced team to move quickly, build where it makes sense to build, and to create a positive impact and avoidance of emissions on the giga-scale CO2 reduction we are targeting globally by 2050.” Kizewski continued, “Green steel as an example is a vital resource in our daily lives and represents the future of production where we are moving away from fossil fuel and high carbon emissions to a cleaner more sustainable production. Where our experience with producing and using hydrogen to directly reduce iron ore allows us to develop and build decentralized green hydrogen, and derivative, production facilities. Green hydrogen is a critical building block to abating carbon emissions as well as offering an essential link between other leading clean technologies that require green hydrogen to reach carbon neutrality.
“The green steel and green chemicals we will produce will transform the future and we intend to be at the forefront,” said Matthew Russell, Protio’s Vice President of Business Development. “When compared to rigid, legacy models, Protio offers a competitive advantage where customers and the planet will benefit sooner due to our accelerated timeline and flexibility.”
The Protio team intends to leverage its deep experience in green steel, green hydrogen and derivative production, supply chain, and market knowledge to develop the industry’s best green steel and green hydrogen derivative production facilities across the globe.
Protio has assembled a team with extensive experience in industrial manufacturing and chemical production including business and project development, production, operation, and end use. Protio is dedicated to reducing GHG through the transformation of the world’s steel and chemical supply to provide for a cleaner tomorrow. Contact Protio at Info@Protio.Green.
