This project seeks to reduce the reliance on precious metals in hydrogen fuel cells by developing molecular catalysts from abundant materials. The goal is to create a more cost-effective and efficient fuel cell technology that meets industry standards.
Despite H2 fuel cell technology pre-dating the internal combustion engine the technology has not progressed much in 100 years.
All hydrogen fuel cells use precious (rare and expensive) metal catalysts to oxidise H2, and reduce O2, such as Pt.
These “precious” metals currently prevent the widespread use of fuel cells.
The US Department of Energy has set a target of 0.125g of Pt / kW energy produced from fuel cells, and a total cost of $30 /kW.
The current record stands at 0.2 g Pt/kW and a cost o…
