Forschungszentrum Jülich: -Techno-economic system analysis (IEK-3) -Electrochemical process engineering (IEK-14)

Sector coupling is an essential component of the energy system analyses of IEK-3. This also includes the investigation of hydrogen production by means of electrolysis. In the area of PEM electrolysis, this includes the investigation of various gas diffusion layers, work on the reduction of precious metals in the electrodes or material research for bipolar plates. Electrolysis research in IEK-14 deals with low-temperature electrolysis. The focus is on cell components, the development of nanostructures, catalysts, electrodes and membrane electrode units. Other research focuses are the development of stack and system electrolysis.- system components.
