What we work on
We accelerate development and scale-up of Power-2-X technologies for a net zero and circular world with focus on Power-2-Hydrogen and Power-2-Chemicals processes, developing and integrating electrochemical, plasma, integrated thermocatalytical and photocatalytic technologies.
- Power-2-Integrate
- Value chain integration of hydrogen and feedstocks
- Multi-criteria technology assessment (TEA/LCA/RMA)
- Accelerated scale-up and scale-out
- Power-2-Hydrogen
- Next generation PEM water electrolysis
- Next generation AEM water electrolysis
- Next generation Solid Oxide steam (co)eletrolysis
- Power-2-Chemicals
- Electrolysis integrated CO2 hydrogenation
- Low-T electrosynthesis from CO2 and bio-feedstock
- Plasma synthesis from waste gases and CO2
- Photochemical conversion
- Infrastructure
Power-2-integrate
Multi-variable Power-2-X analysis
Bring technology-independent insights to stakeholders in order to support decision making with respect to technologies and value chains:
- Strategic implementation of P2X solutions
- Supply chain and market analysis of P2X products
- Techno Economical Analysis (TEA) of technology options or combinations
- Social and environmental (LCA) impact of value chains
- Implementation of P2X/CCU technologies (systemic view)
