LEAPES — Bio-based membranes and catalysts for fuel cells and green hydrogen
Research into bio-based membranes and catalysts for proton exchange membrane fuel cells and green hydrogen electrolyzers.
Research direction
LEAPES brings together membrane engineering and catalyst research within an EU–AU joint research partnership. Its focus is the development of bio-based components for proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells and green hydrogen electrolyzers.
Intended applications
The research addresses materials used in hydrogen production and conversion. Membranes and catalysts are central to these electrochemical systems, making materials development a practical area for collaboration between research teams and technology developers.
