All4Zero , technological innovation hub is looking for technological solutions to develop advanced electrolytic processes in addition to options to facilitate secure hydrogen transport and storage.
Context
Hydrogen has been used in industrial processes for decades. Right now, at a time when industry is experiencing unprecedented transformations, hydrogen will continue to be necessary. However, in this transition, renewable hydrogen is a disrupting factor, with an essential energy vector for decarbonizing industrial sectors such as mobility, iron and steel, and energy.
This renewable hydrogen can be used as a raw material in industry to generate heat or electricity, or for mobility. Likewise, it can be a solution for storing surplus renewable solar and wind energy.
Opportunity
Producing, installing, and making use of renewable hydrogen at a competitive price is a necessity for several industrial sectors, since its universal application would contribute to a substantial change toward a more sustainable future.
In this sense, developing efficient and effective electrolytic processes that can generate hydrogen at a competitive price, along with attainable installation and usage costs, will be key to accelerating the integration of these systems. To do so, it is necessary to implement technologies that aim to significantly improve the current low, medium, and high temperature commercial technologies.
What we are looking for
Optimizing hydrogen production, and ensuring its reliability and competitiveness, is key to decarbonizing industry. To do so, flexibility and adaptation to industrial processes regarding hydrogen use is required, reducing the need for temporary or mid-term storage, as well as validating new production alternatives for renewable hydrogen for later use as a reducing agent, fuel, raw material to develop synthetic fuels, or for other renewable hydrocarbons.
We are looking for technological solutions to develop advanced electrolytic processes in addition to options to facilitate secure hydrogen transport and storage.
