CIDETEC Surface Engineering drives innovation in durable and efficient electrocatalysts without PGMs, improving seawater electrolysis SWEETHY is a 4-year project, co-funded by the European Union, which aims to develop an innovative electrolysis cell capable of producing 20 g h-1 of hydrogen directly from seawater. The project addresses the challenge of processing impure water by harnessing…
A UPV/EHU research project uses charcoal obtained from Pinus radiata remains to create a hybrid supercapacitor for energy storage. The Solid State and Materials Group has developed a lithium-ion capacitor with electrodes created from discarded wood particles from sawmills, a type of biomass accessible in the Basque Country. Sustainable and economical processes have been used…
BH2C, the Basque Hydrogen Corridor has been selected by the Mission Innovation – Clean Hydrogen Mission (CHM) as one of the eight leading examples of ‘Hydrogen Valleys’ globally. This recognition places BH2C among the world’s elite of projects driving the energy transition to green hydrogen. The Hydrogen Valleys platform, jointly developed by the Clean Hydrogen…
UPV/EHU, TECNALIA, EUSKAMPUS FUNDAZIOA and BCAM Basque Center for Applied Mathematics are launching ORE4citizens, a complete programme of free activities for all ages to bring science closer to citizens through marine renewable energies. The initiative has the support of more than 15 organisations and companies, and includes experiments in centres, excursions on the high seas…
