High-efficiency, low-cost electrode-surfaces for next generation alkaline electrolysis

Group contact for the project is Jens Oluf Jensen

Project overview

The overall vision of the project is:

• To facilitate a fossile-free energy-matrix in Denmark, using hydrogen as an important energy carrier in the storage and conversion of surplus wind-power
• To establish Danish state-of-the-art know how on surface engineering of bestperforming low-cost electrodes and electrolysers for electrochemical H₂-production
• To demonstrate the first technology step towards an energy-sector with 100 % renewable energy fraction, and the possibility to chemically convert CO₂, biogas and biomass to valuable fuels for the energy- and transport-sector.

The present project is seen as a crucial proof-of-concept, forming the basis for a future technology platform based on hydrogen as one of the key energy carriers.
