VoltaChem

Its 🔛. The buzz 🌟 since yesterday around the #CleanIndustrialDeal has ensured some positivity for European Industry. For #industrialelectrification and #CCU, we are happy to see that there are some ideas on table on ✅decluttering #permitting issues for new #electricity grids ✅#‘acknowledgement' of the use of Captured Carbon #CCU in ETS, ✅revision of state aid rules for better financing climate, ✅a third round of #HydrogenBank. Through six pillars the Clean Industrial Deal definitely puts the finger where it currently hurts (the European Industry). We love the ambition and the timelines that have been clearly mentioned for each action point. Do we believe that the #Commission, together with it’s member states will deliver on this? We VoltaChem truly hope so!

Green Hydrogen Breakthrough: Testing Low-Iridium PEM Electrolyzers We are proud to present a new cooperation with Toshiba Sustainability Solutions Europe Ltd to work on the development of #low-iridium #PEM electrolyzers. In the coming months, the Faraday Lab in Petten will test Toshiba’s low-iridium membrane electrode assembly (MEA). The aim is to validate its performance under industrially relevant conditions and EU market protocols. The cooperation underpins the strong position of the Faraday Lab among the few high-pressure electrolyzer testing facilities in Europe and adds to TNO’s strong track record in developing and testing of #electrolyzers and their components. According to Tara Van Abkoude, Business Developer for Green Hydrogen production, this will be the start of an on-going cooperation with Toshiba in green hydrogen technology. “The knowledge we generate will benefit us both, and potentially the wider field of PEM electrolysis.” Kazuto Hasebe, General Manager of Hydrogen Business Development at Toshiba Europe expects the cooperation with TNO to contribute to his company’s goals in the development and industrialization of green hydrogen technology. “We are very excited to have started the cooperation with TNO. As an authority in water electrolysis research, this is an important component to the future success of our business.” The picture was taken during the kick-off meeting in Petten.

Great wrap-up from your time at this Tech Summit, Rajesh Mehta. We fully support your aspiration to continue with engaging discussions and build a sustainable future together.

Highly relevant analysis by Dutch Applied Research organization TNO highlighting the challenges and opportunities of the transition towards circular carbon products and its consequences for EU, The Netherlands and Port-of-Rotterdam. Next to waste, biomass and biogenic CO2, circular carbon pathways require large amounts of renewable #electricity and #hydrogen, necessitating the need for highly efficient Power2X, Hydrogen and CCU technologies towards 2050. #CircularCarbon #Recycling #Biobased #CCU #Power2X #Power2Hydrogen #Power2Fuels #Power2Chemicals

Join the international power-2-x workshop and let’s navigate the path toward a sustainable energy future.

#hightech equipment and components are essential to the successful building of an electrolyser market and implementation of electrochemical processes. That is why we are extremely happy that one of the Growth Funds programmes (het Nationaal Groeifonds) has to do with fostering and growing Netherlands’ position in the high-tech equipment industries. In the NXTGEN Hightech growth funds, our colleagues at TNO work on development of components for CO2 electrolysis, as well as PEM electrolysis for hydrogen; amongst others. This particular workshop focused on CO2 electrolysis. Mark Sassenburg Davide Ripepi

Bringing stakeholders together, developing business cases, and performing collaborative applied R&D in the field of industrial electrification and more specifically integration and scale-up of electrochemical, thermocatalytic and plasma technologies, VoltaChem is bringing together the entire value chain for ten years in 2025.

Driving Sustainability Forward: Wishing You a Joyous Festive Season! As we accelerate the development and scale-up of Power-2-X technologies for a net-zero and circular world, we remain focused on Power-2-Hydrogen, Power-2-Chemicals, and Power-2-Integrate processes. Our collaborative efforts in assessing, developing, and integrating Power-2-X technologies and associated value chains are crucial for converting feedstocks into chemical building blocks for materials, fuels, and food. Looking ahead to 2025, we are excited to celebrate the 10th anniversary of VoltaChem. Wishing you a joyous and festive season!   PS: Interested to learn more about our participation options, innovation insights, and/or next generation technologies, check it out https://lnkd.in/eSx65X2K. #power2x #greenhydrogen #energytransition

It really is a curious development that institutions like the City of Amsterdam together with Programmabureau Noordzeekanaalgebied | NZKG have rolled up their sleeves and together with ecosystem players like the Energy Transition Campus Amsterdam and Rockstart went out and invited startups in the field of #ccu to come up with promising solutions for the region in order to meet its 2050 #climategoals. Congratulations to all the finalists, UP Catalyst , CarbonOrO ParaStruct, Accu't , Skytree. Congratulations on the great start and all the best! For me, being tasked with ensuring scale up and market introduction of #power2x technologies at VoltaChem , TNO it was an extremely relevant event. Extra nice was the panel together with Max ter Horst Rockstart , Montse Mussons Olivella, Sympower , Frans Everts ,Shell , Ingrid Post, moderated by the fabulous Donatello Piras. Topics discussed: 👉🏽IP sharing in open innovation: when and how 👉🏽 policy impulse versus market innovation 👉🏽 public private partnerships: when and how 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 TNO is of course a proud member of Energy Transition Campus Amsterdam and it was great to see Tim Baart-Meijering , Business Developer at ETCA taking our example to pinpoint the open campus strategy as a success story!
