DGIST, PNNL team develops efficient, low-cost anode material for water electrolysis

Green Car Congress

OER is a slow electrochemical reaction as compared with the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER); thus, a suitable electrocatalyst is needed. The DGIST and PNNL team focused on developing an alternative, low-cost, non-noble metal electrocatalyst to replace the noble metal anode electrode in efficient water splitting.

Australia Goes All-in on Green Hydrogen

Cars That Think

For several months now, 20 teams of Australian high-school students have been designing fuel-cell cars to compete in the country’s inaugural Hydrogen Grand Prix. The task: make the most of a 30-watt fuel cell and 14 grams of hydrogen gas. Welcome to Australia, where a green-hydrogen boom is in full swing.

Manganese hydride molecular sieve for practical hydrogen storage could cost roughly 5x less than 700 bar tanks

Green Car Congress

The team projects that reasonable estimates for production costs and loss of performance due to system implementation result in total energy storage costs roughly 5 times cheaper than those for 700 bar tanks, potentially opening doors for increased adoption of hydrogen as an energy vector. —Antonelli et al. Skipper et al.
