Automotive Fuel Cell Stack Cluster Initiative for Europe II (Auto-Stack CORE)
Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
Several automotive OEMs have announced plans for the commercialization of fuel cell vehicles from 2014/15. Industrial partnerships such as H2-Mobility in Germany, the UK or Hydrogen Highway in Scandinavia are working to establish the required initial H2- infrastructure While this is a clear signal for the functional readiness of fuel cell technology in automotive application, durability, efficienc ...

Design of Thin-Film Nanocatalysts for On-Chip Fuel Cell Technology (CHIPCAT)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2016,
chipCAT aims at the knowledge-driven development of a novel type of thin-film catalysts for silicon-based “on-chip” micro fuel cells (u-FCs). Combining fundamental surface-science, model catalysis, and first-principles computational studies, a detailed understanding of the surface chemistry on complex nanostructured catalysts will be achieved. This microscopic-level understanding will be used to t ...

STAYERS Stationary PEM fuel cells with lifetimes beyond five years (STAYERS)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
"Economical use of PEM fuel cell power for stationary applications demands a lifetime of the fuel cells of at least 5 years, or more than 40,000 hours of continuous operation. The prospect of large scale application for automotive use has focused PEM research on low cost production techniques with practical lifetimes of the fuel cells of 5,000 hours. For the stationary use, especially in the chemi ...

Automotive Fuel Cell Stack Cluster Initiative for Europe (Auto-Stack)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2011,
While the supply base for materials and components in Europe is well advanced and competitive, stack integration is lagging behind due to massive investment requirements and risks associated with commercialization. The project aims to develop approaches to address the critical barriers for substantial improvement of collaboration between major stakeholders and establishing a solid business model f ...
