REDHy
Discover the highly adaptable, enduring, environmentally friendly, intrinsically secure, and cost-efficient REDHy’s approach enabling the production of economically viable green hydrogen at high current densities.
Uniresearch is leading the tasks on dissemination, communication and support for exploitation. Communicating and disseminating results of the project to the relevant target audiences are key to ensure a good exploitation of results when the project has ended.
The REDHy method is uniting academic and industrial entities across a broad spectrum of expertise. Unlike SoA electrolysers, REDHy is entirely free of critical raw materials and doesn’t require fluorinated membranes or ionomers, while maintaining the potential to fulfil a substantial portion of the 2024 KPIs. In accordance with Europe’s circular-economy action plan, a 5-cellstack with an active surface area exceeding 100 cm2 and a nominal power of 1.5 kW will be developed, capable of managing a vast dynamic range of operational capacities with economically viable and stable stack components. These endeavours will guarantee lasting and efficient performance at elevated current densities (1.5 A cm-2 at Ecell 1.8 V/cell) at low temperatures (60 °C) and suitable hydrogen output pressures (15 bar). The project will produce and validate a prototype in a laboratory setting for 1200 hours at a maximum degradation of 0.1%/1000 hours and achieve TRL4 (technology validated in the lab).
The project consortium consists of 7 partners from 5 countries.
