Summary
Scalable high-performance electrolytic hydrogen generator. The project aims to demonstrate energy-efficient generation of compressed hydrogen by water electrolysis in a high pressure electrolyser test-rig produced by Melbourne company Energys Australia P/L, using high-performance membrane-electrode assemblies. Innovative electrode architectures, membranes, and method for their high through-put lamination will be developed. New knowledge in catalysis, device fabrication and materials science is e ....Scalable high-performance electrolytic hydrogen generator. The project aims to demonstrate energy-efficient generation of compressed hydrogen by water electrolysis in a high pressure electrolyser test-rig produced by Melbourne company Energys Australia P/L, using high-performance membrane-electrode assemblies. Innovative electrode architectures, membranes, and method for their high through-put lamination will be developed. New knowledge in catalysis, device fabrication and materials science is expected to be generated. The major project outcome is sustainable method for generation of compressed hydrogen at significantly reduced cost as compared to the existing technologies. Benefits include industry-ready processes for electrolyser and hydrogen production that support Australian energy industries.Read moreRead less

Summary
Accelerating Green Hydrogen Production with High Efficiency Electrolysers. This project aims to accelerate the decarbonisation of high-carbon industries (eg heavy transport, chemical production, and steel) by advancing the manufacture of high efficiency water electrolysers in Australia. Innovative electrochemical and other techniques that exploit all of the levers for high efficiency in electrolysers, will be applied to support the commercial development of this key component of green hydrogen p ....Accelerating Green Hydrogen Production with High Efficiency Electrolysers. This project aims to accelerate the decarbonisation of high-carbon industries (eg heavy transport, chemical production, and steel) by advancing the manufacture of high efficiency water electrolysers in Australia. Innovative electrochemical and other techniques that exploit all of the levers for high efficiency in electrolysers, will be applied to support the commercial development of this key component of green hydrogen production. Expected outcomes of this project, in collaboration with industry partner Hysata, include a low-cost, simplified design, and ultra-high energy efficiency. This should provide significant benefits to the green hydrogen sector, industry, and contribute to achieving net-zero emissions globally.Read moreRead less
