SuperCell Shared Research Program
21-09-2023 | Program update
Since April 2022, TNO has been working within the VoltaChem program with three partners to develop a new generation of electrolyzers. It is collaborating with German company Schaeffler, British company Johnson Matthey, and Belgian company Bekaert to improve the cell that is part of PEM electrolysis. The cell is the heart of this electrolysis process and consists of various layers, such as electric

In this series we put the spotlight on VoltaChem’s team members and get to know them more in-depth. We explore their role, background, expertise, motivations and ambitions. In this edition: Jordi Creus Casanovas, Lead Scientist AEM water electrolysis of the Power-2-Hydrogen program line at VoltaChem.
Electrolysers: opportunities for the high-tech manufacturing industry
20-03-2023 | P2Hydrogen
The global challenge of the current climate crisis presses governments, businesses and knowledge organizations all over the world to mobilize behind energy saving, phasing out fossil energy and rapid deployment of renewable energy and green hydrogen. Given the large volumes of green hydrogen required for the energy transition, there is a need to vastly ramp up the capacity for green hydrogen produ
Next steps in Solid Oxide Electrolysis
01-11-2019 | New Project
VoltaChem researchers are developing the next generation of Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOE) cells at TNO’s Faraday lab in Petten. SOE technology offers great opportunities for large scale hydrogen production, renewable energy storage and, in particular, for electrification of the chemical industry. A unique feature is the co-electrolysis of steam and carbon dioxide, resulting in the generation of
The materials issue of hydrogen production
31-10-2019 | P2Hydrogen
Producing adequate amounts of hydrogen is crucial to establishing a fully sustainable energy supply and producing sustainable chemical products. But the scale of the energy system can pose important problems. One important issue is the availability of raw materials for large-scale production of hydrogen through electrolysis. In a current Voltachem study, the scale of this problem is being quantifi
New facilities for hydrogen research: The Faraday Lab
10-10-2019 | New Project
Developed with 6-million-euro funding from the Dutch national scheme for Electrochemical Conversion & Materials, the new Faraday Lab in Petten is a significant extension of the facilities of TNO. It is dedicated to working on innovative solutions together with industrial partners, in the development and testing of materials and components for all relevant electrolyzer technologies: PEM, SOE, AEM a
