Hungarian-owned EL-Q Invest Ltd. has invested EUR 6.8 million to build a new nitrogen production plant at its Pécs site. This ensures a reliable and continuous nitrogen supply for companies in Baranya, lowering the risk of disruptions.
During the production process – especially in the manufacturing of electronic components and chips – a clean, contaminant-free environment is essential. Nitrogen plays a key role in this, helping to protect sensitive components and ensuring stable production conditions.
EL-Q Invest Ltd. has designed its nitrogen plant to meet the long-term needs of various industries, including electronics, textiles, metal processing, food production, and the automotive sector.
The 300 sqm facility is equipped with the necessary machinery and equipment for nitrogen production. In addition, a remotely monitored optimization system contributes to improving production efficiency.
The new plant operates with a closed technology, producing no emissions and ensuring energy-efficient and cost-effective production. Its energy supply is supported by a backfeed-protected solar park, which covers a significant portion of the plant’s energy needs from renewable sources. The energy is used exclusively on-site and is not fed back into the public grid.
The investment, over a fifth of which is paid for by Hungarian taxpayers through a government support scheme, is expected to create 16 new jobs, offering long-term employment opportunities for skilled professionals.
