AEMELIA accepts the challenge to design and prototype AEMEL that meets and surpasses Hydrogen Europe’s 2030 targets for performance, durability,safety and cost. AEMELIA proposes a clear path to reach high current-density (1.5 A cm-2) and low voltage (1.75 V). Energy-efficiency surpassesthe 2030 target (46.9 kWh/kg, or 85% of maximum theoretical efficiency), to make 3 times more H2 with less energy compared to XY. LCOH also outshines 2030 targets at 2.5€/kgH2 (17% lower than 2030 target). The degradation rate meets the 2030 target, enabling a 10-year lifetime. These and other KPIs will be validated via the TRL4 prototype of a 5-cell stack at 100 cm² that will deliver 7.2 Nm3/day of H2 at a purity of 99.9% at 15 bar. The team will develop and test disruptive materials, such as fluorine free ionomers; thin, highly-conducting membranes; PGM-free recombination catalysts; and ionomer-free electrodes. These components are based on earth-abundant, safe materials. They would be fully scalable via existing manufacturing processes. They will be combined in innovate cell designs, taking into account novel flow-field design based on CFD models. Innovative operating conditions such as high operating temperature and pulsed current will increase energy-efficiency while reducing balance of plant (BoP) and will be tested in single cells, as will the use of impure water for improved LCA and cost. Lastly, disruptive methods for AI-based ionomer development and the measurement of the catalytically-active surface area of non-PGM catalysts will be developed. Performance, durability, LCA and cost KPIs will be shared with companies to convince them to invest in upscaling after the project. Partners have many success stories in developing disruptive electrochemical materials and systems and bringing them to market. AEMELIA’s market penetration in 2031 is expected to generate 527 M€ in revenues by 2036, and 1172 kt CO2/year avoided compared to steam methane reforming.

AEMELIA接受设计和原型AEMEL的挑战，以满足并超越Hydrogen Europe在性能，耐用性，安全性和成本方面的2030年目标。AEMELIA为实现高电流密度（1.5 A cm-2）和低电压（1.75 V）提供了一条清晰的途径。能源效率超过2030年目标（46.9 kWh/kg，即最大理论效率的85%），与XY相比，以更少的能源生产3倍的H2。LCOH也超过了2030年的目标，为2.5欧元/kgH 2（比2030年的目标低17%）。降解率达到2030年的目标，使其寿命达到10年。这些和其他KPI将通过100 cm² 5电池堆的TRL 4原型进行验证，该原型将在15 bar下提供7.2 Nm 3/天的纯度为99.9%的H2。该团队将开发和测试破坏性材料，如无氟离聚物;薄，高导电膜;无铂族金属复合催化剂;和无离聚物电极。这些组件都是基于地球丰富，安全的材料。它们将通过现有的制造工艺完全可扩展。它们将结合在创新的电池设计中，考虑到基于CFD模型的新型流场设计。创新的操作条件，如高工作温度和脉冲电流，将提高能源效率，同时降低工厂平衡（BoP），并将在单电池中进行测试，以及使用不纯净水来改善LCA和成本。最后，将开发用于Al基离聚物开发和非PGM催化剂的催化活性表面积的测量的破坏性方法。性能、耐用性、LCA和成本KPI将与公司分享，以说服他们在项目结束后投资升级。合作伙伴在开发颠覆性电化学材料和系统并将其推向市场方面拥有许多成功故事。AEMELIA在2031年的市场渗透预计到2036年将产生5.27亿欧元的收入，与蒸汽甲烷重整相比，每年可避免1172 kt CO2。
