High-throughput multiscale characterization and artificial intelligence to develop new sustainable electrode materials for water electrolysis

High-throughput analysis of electrodes for better water electrolysis

Goals

Improving the performance of alkaline electrolyzers through the development of high-performance heterostructured electrodes

Innovations

The traditional approach to improving electrocatalysts involves trial and error. Here, the innovative approach is to use semi-automated multi-scale characterization platforms to generate large amounts of data that will feed machine learning algorithms to accelerate the discovery of more active and sustainable materials for water electrolysis.
