The selected projects will focus on technologies such as revolutionizing fuel cells for light- and heavy-duty vehicles, and technologies to generate less nuclear waste and reduce the cost of fuel. This would eliminate the ionomer, which conducts ions, but also poisons catalyst sites and obstructs oxygen transport.
