In the quest for a low-carbon economy, a team of visionary scientists at the NTI Competence Center, specializing in “Hydrogen as the basis of a low-carbon economy,” within the Federal Research Center, Institute of Catalysis SB RAS, have achieved a remarkable breakthrough. Their innovation involves a novel material for electrodes in hydrogen fuel cells, opening doors to a more efficient and environmentally friendly future.

Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, has long been touted as a promising renewable energy source for the vehicles of the future. Dr. XiaoYu Wu, a mechanical and mechatronics engineering professor at the University of Waterloo, firmly believes in hydrogen’s potential, but he also recognizes the significant challenges associated with its storage and transportation.

India is gearing up for a pilot project to produce 100 MW of round-the-clock (RTC) power using green hydrogen as storage. This ambitious endeavor, set to launch soon, reflects India’s determination to lead the world in green hydrogen and ammonia production, propelled by its abundant and cost-effective renewable energy resources.
