Eg with temperature, pressure or state ie maybe it's more if H is in liquid form or something?

The other things that change the ionization energy is the mass in the nucleus. The energies are higher in Deuterium and Tritium.

Ionization energy is the property of the hydrogen atom and represents the energy when imparted to electron it would be free itself from the electrostatic attraction of its nucleus. The state of hydrogen in bulk is due to the attraction between neutral atoms first and then neutral molecules. Of course if the temperature is very high so that the collision between molecules break the molecular bond and few ions here and there hit the atoms to ionize it, atoms will ionize but the minimum energy required to do so would remain the same

ionisation energy of hydrogen in the ground state is 13.6 eV only. it can not change. if the temperature is increased then the electron can go to the outer orbits, like if it is in the second orbit then its ionisation energy becomes 3.4 eV
