Hydrogen fuel infrastructure and fuel cell industry development

Devices that convert chemical energy from a fuel into electricity through an electrochemical reaction, producing minimal emissions.

Technology that uses electrochemical processes to separate hydrogen, requiring platinum as a catalyst material. The partnership focuses on developing new electrochemical hydrogen separation technologies to improve efficiency of South Africa's hydrogen infrastructure.

The process used to produce green hydrogen by splitting water using electricity.

South Africa

A collaborative project between North-West University and Anglo American Platinum to develop and demonstrate new electrochemical hydrogen separation technologies for South Africa's hydrogen fuel infrastructure.
