NEWELY – is an EU Horizon 2020 FCH JU project that aims at redefining anion-exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE).
The project works on the design, component and material development of a new AEM water electrolyser prototype, demonstrating long-term durability at relevant operating conditions. With the innovations on the materials, on the cell and stack design and with the improvements in operating conditions, NEWELY represents the new generation of AEMWE.
PROMET-H2 – is an EU Horizon 2020 project that aims to develop new technologies that will improve the processes of energy transmission to hydrogen, as well as its cost and storage.
The project works at reducing or eliminating the use of expensive precious metal catalysts and other expensive components in PEM electrolysis and employing a new hydraulic compression technology, lowering the CAPEX to 500-700 € kW-1 without compromising performance.
REDHY – is an EU Horizon project that aims at redox-mediated water electrolysis for economic, critical-raw-material-free green hydrogen production.
The project works on a fundamentally reimagined electrolyser concept that avoids critical raw materials and PFAS-based membranes or ionomers, targeting durable high-current-density operation. A multi-cell stack prototype is developed and validated in the laboratory to demonstrate long-term efficiency and prepare the pathway toward the next generation of CRM-free electrolysis.
SWEETHY – is an EU Horizon project that aims at direct seawater electrolysis technology for distributed green hydrogen production.
The project works on specialised materials and a scalable high-pressure AEM electrolyser stack designed for intermittent renewable power, enabling hydrogen production from natural or alkaline seawater. Demonstration activities target thousands of hours of operation under real Mediterranean seawater conditions while integrating sustainability and techno-economic analysis.
HYScale – is an EU Horizon project that aims at economic green hydrogen production at scale via a novel, critical-raw-material-free advanced alkaline membrane water electrolysis technology.
The project works on upscaling CRM-free membranes, ionomers, electrodes and stacks toward a 100 kW system, targeting high current densities at low temperature with a low CAPEX pathway. Industrial validation at TRL5 is intended to accelerate commercial deployment of efficient, scalable AEM electrolysis.
