Zinc Air Secondary innovative nanotech based batteries for efficient energy storage (ZAS)
Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: May 31, 2018,
"In ZAS the topic NMP-13-2014: "Storage of energy produced by decentralised sources" will be addressed in order to improve the performance of rechargeable zinc-air batteries as a promising option for stationary energy storage. The overall objective of ZAS is to enable the use of distributed and intermittent renewable energy sources by further developing this type of battery technology. The new bat ...

ENhanced DURability materials for Advanced stacks of New solid oxide fuel CElls (Endurance)
Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2017,
"The project aims at developing reliable predictive models to estimate long-term (i.e. > 20 kh) performance and probability of failure of SOFC stacks based on existing materials and design produced by the industrial partners. This will allow the realization of stacks with extended service intervals and reduced maintenance cost with respect to the present stack technology. The extension of service ...

Melt Spun and Sintered Metal Fibre Networks for Lead-Acid Battery Advancement (MEMLAB)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
"Climate change is one of the largest threats facing the world today. At the forefront of combating this issue are low carbon technologies. Recently, HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicles) have come forward as the most achievable solution of the moment. At present, HEV use expensive Lithium ion and NiM batteries due to their high power to weight ratio. Lead-acid batteries are a cheaper option, but due to ...

Sustainable Hydrogen Generation (SUSHGEN)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
"Water arguably is the only true renewable source of hydrogen fuel. However extraction of the hydrogen requires significant energy input; either thermal, electrical or light. By utilizing a renewable electrical energy source, water electrolysis offers a practical route to sustainable hydrogen production. The coupling of electrolysis with renewable electrical energy (e.g. from wind) enables the ful ...

Innovative Dual mEmbrAne fueL Cell (IDEAL-CELL)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
IDEAL-Cell proposes to develop a new innovative and competitive concept of a high temperature Fuel Cell, operated in the range 600-700°C, based on the junction between a PCFC anode/electrolyte part and a SOFC electrolyte/cathode, through a mixed H2 and O2 conducting porous ceramic membrane. Protons created at the anode progress toward the central membrane to meet with Oxygen ions created at the ca ...
