Project Details
Description
This project advances material research for green energy solutions, focusing on hydrogen and ammonia as alternatives to fossil fuels. It explores key areas including additive manufacturing for hydrogen storage, non-destructive testing for transport and storage systems, and porous nanomaterials for efficient hydrogen and ammonia production. Prototype materials and test methods will be developed, characterized, and used in modeling work. The goal is to enable safer, more sustainable, and cost-effective production and storage of these energy carriers. Ultimately, the project supports the EU’s transition away from Russian fossil fuels by addressing energy loss challenges in the hydrogen-ammonia energy cycle.
