Electrochemical systems, engineered at every scale

From electrode interfaces to megawatt plants — we design, model, and diagnose the electrochemical systems that convert renewable electricity into hydrogen and carbon-based fuels.

What we work on

All research

PEM water electrolysis

Porous transport layers, flow-field design, and two-phase transport — resolved by X-ray imaging and CFD, from single cells to differential-pressure stacks.

PTL microstructure, oxygen bubble dynamics, differential-pressure stack design

Alkaline & AEM electrolysis

Durable electrodes, separators, and stack engineering for dynamic operation with renewables — including shunt-current and reverse-current mitigation.

Ni-based catalysts, intermittent operation, high-pressure AWE

CO₂ electroreduction

Electrode and cell architectures that convert captured CO₂ into formate and other e-fuels, guided by transport modeling and operando analysis.

Gas-diffusion electrodes, wettability patterning, e-fuels

Modeling & diagnostics

Physics-based models and degradation diagnostics that connect lab measurements to stack lifetime, safety, and the economics of green hydrogen.

Electrochemical modeling, degradation analysis, techno-economics
