Demonstration of a combined heat and power 2 MWe PEM fuel cell generator and integration into an existing chlorine production plant (DEMCOPEM-2MW)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

"The project DEMCOPEM-2MW is to design, construct and demonstrate an economical combined heat and power PEM fuel cell power plant (2 MW electrical power and 1.5 MW heat) and integration into a chlor-alkali (CA) production plant. A chlor-alkali production plant produces chlorine and caustic soda (lye) and high purity hydrogen. The hydrogen contains almost 45% of the energy that is consumed in the ...

Novel materials and system designs for low cost, efficient and durable PEM electrolysers (NOVEL)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Water electrolysis based on PEM technology has demonstrated its applicability to produce hydrogen and oxygen in a clean and safe way. Systems have been demonstrated in a wide range of niche applications with capacities from 70 % (LHV). The improved materials will also be made available to current developers of PEM electrolysers to allow them to quantify the benefits, and to provide early feedback ...

Improved Lifetime of Automotive Application Fuel Cells with ultra low Pt-loading (IMPACT)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

"The main objective of the planned project IMPACT is to increase the life-time of fuel cells with membrane-electrode assemblies containing ultra low Pt-loading (< 0.2 mg cm-2) for automotive applications. The economic requirements to reduce Pt loading leads to the challenge to maintain durability and performance, an aspect which has not been addressed sufficiently in public projects and studies. A ...
