On the 27th of October 2022, VoltaChem and its founding partner TNO organized an open webinar as a part of the European Hydrogen Week 2022 (an initiative of the Clean Hydrogen Partnership). The webinar focused on the Materials Challenge for Hydrogen Production.
A factor of 200 reduction of iridium catalyst for PEM electrolysers is demonstrated to be possible keeping on average 1/3 of performance
24-10-2022
Researchers of the Dutch applied technology institute TNO and TNO Holst, developed in the VoltaChem program an advanced electrocatalyst which uses a two order of magnitude lower amount of iridium and hereby outperforming the European Clean Hydrogen roadmap target on the usage of critical raw materials as catalyst. Initial lab experiments showed that hardly any degradation occurred after short acce
