Energy News is thrilled to welcome Dr. Quentin Meyer to its Advisory Board, a visionary researcher whose groundbreaking work in hydrogen fuel cells and electrochemical engineering is accelerating the global transition to clean energy.
With a career spanning academia, industry, and collaborative innovation, Dr. Meyer has established himself as a leading authority in fuel cells, electrocatalysis, and the development of cost-effective green technologies.
Dr. Meyer’s journey began with dual master’s degrees in Electrochemical Engineering and Electrochemical Research from France’s Grenoble Institute of Technology (2011), followed by a Ph.D. at University College London (UCL) in 2015. His doctoral research on advanced diagnostics for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells earned him UCL’s Award for Research Excellence, laying the foundation for his pioneering work in hydrogen technology. After a postdoctoral fellowship at UCL, where he specialized in 3D imaging of fuel cell components, Dr. Meyer relocated to Australia in 2017. There, he consulted for startups in hydrogen fuel cell and lithium-ion battery engineering, blending academic rigor with industry pragmatism.
Now a Lecturer at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Dr. Meyer heads the university’s hydrogen fuel cell research. His team focuses on electrocatalysis of complex reactions, structure-to-performance relationships in materials, and designing low-cost electrocatalysts for fuel cells and electrolyzers. He has been the Chair of the New South Wales division of the Hydrogen Society of Australia and currently heads the Hydrogen Utilization division of the Australian Hydrogen Research Network.
Recognized with the 2021 EDRACI Young Electrochemist Award for Australia–New Zealand, Dr. Meyer’s influence extends far beyond the lab. With over 70 peer-reviewed publications, 60+ international presentations, and three patents, he has shaped the global discourse on hydrogen energy. His research on system-level challenges—from material degradation to industrial scalability—has reinforced hydrogen’s role in decarbonizing sectors like transportation and heavy industry.
