    MEMBRANE ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY MARKET RECENT PARTNERSHIPS

     

    A recent partnership between Advent Technologies Holdings Inc. and BASF New Business GmbH intends to promote the development of innovative fuel cell membranes created for long-term use in challenging environments.

     

    In order to enable even better and more competitive innovative fuel cell systems and membrane electrode assembly, BASF plans to boost production capacity with advanced technical capabilities and improve the long-term durability of its celtec membrane (MEA).

     

    The two businesses will use Advent’s fuel cell stack and system testing facilities to evaluate and qualify the new celtec membrane for the SereneU (telecom power), M-ZERO, (methane emissions reduction), and Honey Badger fuel cell systems (portable power, defense).

     

    Additionally, BASF provides materials for power generation, hydrogen production, and power storage to facilitate the implementation of the massive Important Projects of Common European Interests (IPCEIs) White Dragon and Green HiPo (pending EU approval).

     

    MEMBRANE ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY MARKET DYNAMICS

     

    Development of Manufactured Assembly Technology for Electrochemical Hydrogen Compression by NREL and HyET Hydrogen. HyET’s electrochemical hydrogen compression operates at high pressure, necessitating the use of premium membrane electrode assemblies (MEA), preferably created through efficient, high-capacity production.

     

    In order to manufacture MEAs, HyET is working with NREL to establish procedures and quality-control techniques. Together, NREL and HyET Hydrogen will create inks, coatings, real-time inspection procedures, and MEAs for electrochemical hydrogen compression that are appropriate for high-volume electrode manufacture.

     

    The scale-up to high-volume manufacture of membranes, electrodes, and MEAs for fuel cells and electrochemical generation will be supported by the project thanks to NREL’s expertise and capabilities. A leading supplier of direct methanol and hydrogen fuel cells for stationary and mobile hybrid power systems, SFC Energy AG (F3C:DE, ISIN: DE0007568578) expands its network of reliable business partners.

     

    A cooperative development and supply agreement has been inked by the inventor of the fuel cell and Johnson Matthey, a global leader in sustainable technologies with its headquarters in London (UK). 

     

    The development of the membrane electrode assembly (MEA), or stack—the fuel cell’s beating heart—is at the centre of the collaboration. Ballard Power Systems recently unveiled its “local for local” strategy, under which it intends to expand its global manufacturing footprint in China, Europe, and the US to meet rising global demand.

     

    In line with this strategy, Ballard has signed an investment agreement with the Government of Anting in Shanghai’s Jiading District to locate its new China headquarters, membrane electrode assembly (MEA) manufacturing facility, and R&D centre at a prime location at the Jiading Hydrogen Port, which is situated in one of China’s top automotive industry clusters.

     

    Ballard intends to invest roughly $130 million over the following three years, which will allow the new MEA production facility to produce about 13 million MEAs annually, which will supply about 20,000 engines. Ballard anticipates being able to significantly expand this facility’s capacity in subsequent phases with much lower capital expenditures.

     

    In order to support the production and sale of Ballard engines in China’s stationary, rail, marine, off-road, and export markets, the facility will also include space for 600 engines to be assembled annually. The Nikola Motor Company has received funding from the US Department of Energy to advance its study of fuel cell membrane electrode assembly (MEA). 

     

    The highly skilled Nikola team will have the chance to use academic knowledge and the DOE Fuel Cell Consortium for Performance and Durability’s exceptional resources to accelerate a development that will help the entire hydrogen and fuel cell community.

     

    Under the recently released Commercial Trucks and Off-Road Applications FOA, the joint grant was funded by the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) Transportation Office of the U.S. Department of Energy.

     

    Together with its academic partners, Nikola is pursuing a novel strategy and distinctive MEA architecture to meet the high-power output and durability requirements of heavy-duty applications. 

     

    By utilising suitable, scalable fabrication techniques, Nikola will combine cutting-edge concepts in catalysts, ionomers, proton exchange membranes, and gas diffusion layers within a reliable MEA in this project.

     

    The goal of Gore is to create effective, long-lasting, and useful solutions that reduce total cost of ownership. 

     

    Proton Exchange Membranes (PEM) and Membrane Electrode Assemblies (MEA), two of Gore’s market-leading proprietary products, enable widespread commercialization of hydrogen fuel cells across a range of important industrial market segments, from stationary power generation to international long-haul transportation.

     

    MEMBRANE ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY MARKET RECENT DEVELOPMENT

     

    An essential part of fuel cells, next-generation membrane electrode assemblies will be developed at Advent’s new facility. Advent anticipates that truck and other vehicle manufacturers will use these assemblies to power heavy-duty mobility applications with twice as much power as current fuel cell systems while also having a longer lifetime.

     

    This facility and the commercialization process that made it feasible represent a significant development in the long-term fuel cell technology path they have been on at Los Alamos. For zero-emission fuel cell technology to be used in heavy-duty applications like trucks and machinery, a strong, long-lasting fuel cell is essential.

     

    Problems that prevented hydrogen fuel cells from living up to their potential as engine systems are now solved by the new assembly design. Even with cutting-edge fuel cells, overheating has consistently been an issue.

     

    Over the past several decades, scientists have worked to create fuel cells that can function over 100 degrees Celsius. This capability makes fuel cell systems easier by improving heat and water management.

     

    A new hydrogen fuel cell research, development, and production centre that recently opened in Massachusetts is advancing fuel cell technology and bringing it closer to a future where they are used in both sectors and on our roads. Electricity is generated by the electrochemical reaction of airborne hydrogen and oxygen in fuel cells, an energy-conversion technology.

     

    The research group created a new polymer electrolyte system, protonated phosphonated polymers, with funding from the Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) and the DOE’s Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office “L’Innovator” programme.

     

    In that design, a proton from a perfluorosulfonic acid transfers to the phosphonated polymer and significantly improves proton conductivity, resulting in a high-performance fuel cell. The composite polymer electrolyte was used to obtain a power density of over 800 milliwatts per square centimetre at 160 degrees Celsius, a 60% increase over fuel cells based on phosphoric acid.

     

    Due to this achievement, the technology was much closer to being road-ready and was therefore ready for transfer to the private sector. Advent was able to confirm the technology for its high-temperature proton-exchange membrane fuel cells, called “Ion Pair MEA,” through the Innovator programme. Membrane electrode assembly is referred to as MEA.

     

    The technology, created at Los Alamos National Laboratory and commercialised through partnerships with Advent Technologies as part of alternative material design, has the potential to be used for zero-emission transportation.

     

    The L’Innovation membrane electrode assembly project has been extended beyond its initial two-year duration due to its success. The product was made by Advent using five patents that were licensed from the Laboratory.
