VoltaChem in action: Growing significance of industrial electrification
Pushing technology development from research & innovation towards piloting and demonstration in an international context, that's what it's all about at VoltaChem. 2019 saw considerable growth in projects as well as in partners, and important steps have been made in important fields such as the conversion of biobased feedstocks to high-value chemical building blocks, the integrated capture and conversion of CO2, and the development of paired electrosynthesis concepts. A state-of-the art research infrastructure has been established for the low-cost manufacturing of electrolyzers and components, and adding to the expertise in PEM and alkaline technology promising progress has been made in Solid Oxide Electrolysis.

Michael Carus: “We need a future-oriented renewable carbon strategy”
As the founder and managing director of the German nova-Institute, Michael Carus is considered one of the leading experts and market researchers in Europe on the bio- and CO2-based economy. Invited by Reinier Grimbergen of VoltaChem's Power-2-Chemicals program line, he presented his views on a renewable carbon strategy on chemicals and polymers at the VoltaChem Annual Event in December 2019. As it turns out, VoltaChem's efforts in this field are quite well-aligned with Carus' views.

New facilities for hydrogen research: Hydrohub
It is expected that by the end of this year, the Hydrohub MegaWatt Test Centre will become fully operational. It offers state-of-the-art facilities for optimizing and scaling-up of electrolysis using alkaline and PEM technology. With two 250 kW test electrolyzers it facilitates the next step in bringing the production of green hydrogen to an industrially relevant multi-megawatt level, focusing on robustness, flexibility, efficiency and cost reduction.
