Electrochemical Power Sources: Fundamentals, Systems, and Applications Hydrogen Production by Water Electrolysis
Coordonnateurs : Smolinka Tom, Garche Jürgen
Hydrogen production by water electrolysis is the main technology to integrate high shares of electricity from renewable energy sources and balance out the supply and demand match in the energy system. Different electrochemical approaches exist to produce hydrogen from RES (Renewable Energy Sources).
2. Basics of water electrolysis
3. Comparison with other hydrogen production processes
4. Historical outline of water electrolysis
5. Alkaline water electrolysis (AWE)
6. PEM water electrolysis (PEMWE)
7. High-temperature steam electrolysis (SOSE)
8. Chlor-alkali electrolysis
9. Seawater electrolysis
10. Economics of water electrolysis
11. Regenerative FCs
12. Selected projects for system integration
13. Hydrogen storage
Prof. Dr. Jürgen Garche has more than 40 years of experience in battery and fuel cell research & development. In his academic career the focus was on material research. Thereafter, he worked on and directed cell and system development of conventional (LAB, NiCd, NiMH) and advanced (Li-Ion, NaNiCl2, Redox-Flow) batteries. His experience includes also fuel cells (mainly low temperature FCs) and supercaps. He established the battery & FC division of the ZSW in Ulm (Germany), an industry related R&D institute with about 100 scientists and technicians. His interest in battery safety goes back to the work with the very large battery safety testing center of the ZSW. In 2004 he founded the FC&Battery consulting office FCBAT; furthermore he is a senior professor at Ulm University.
