Benchmarking Advanced Water Splitting Technologies: Best Practices in Materials Characterization
The high-level project goal is to create a comprehensive Best Practices benchmarking framework at the materials, component, device and systems levels for advanced water splitting technologies. All advanced water splitting pathways covered under the HydroGEN Energy Materials Network (EMN) Consortium, which include advanced high and low temperature electrolysis of water, photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting and solar thermochemical hydrogen (STCH) need these best practices to advance materials discovery. These practices will also aid the H2@Scale DOE initiative to accomplish their goals of large-scale H2 production.
