The goal of our research and development work is to create cost-effective batteries, fuel cells, and electrolysers with improved energy and power density, longer service life, and maximum safety! At the Institute of Energy Technologies – Fundamentals of Electrochemistry (IET-1), we conduct research on cutting-edge topics related to the energy transition and structural change. Hydrogen production based on renewable energy sources via high- and low-temperature electrolysis is of increasing importance to us. At IET-1, we are studying the electrolysis of CO2 for the sustainable conversion of green energy into chemical energy carriers in order to defossilize the chemical industry. The process control and optimization of electrolysis from the cell to the stack requires automated monitoring, analysis, and control of the operating parameters and processes.
