Hier haben 6 Online-Veranstaltungen im zweimonatigen Rhythmus, zum vertiefen der Themen, im bewährten Format der Reihe Materials for the European Green Deal stattgefunden.
Diese Reihe fand wieder in Zusammenarbeit mit Technologieland Hessen statt.
Abschllussveranstaltung –14. Juli 2023: 12:00 – 17:30 Uhr Abschlussveranstaltung RePowerEU im Congress Park Hanau
In collaboration with the association Materials Valley, Preferred Computational Chemistry, Inc. (PFCC) will host a free webinar titled “Using AI to Search for Innovative Battery Materials“.
Exploring innovative materials at the atomic scale is today possible with Matlantis™, a cloud platform based on AI-powered interatomic potentials.
After an introduction to Matlantis™ by PFCC, Lieven Bekaert will present his latest research in rechargeable sodium metal batteries on investigating the reactivity of the Na3PS4 solid-state electrolyte with the sodium metal electrode.
To simulate the reactivity at the atomistic level, conventional techniques such as ab-initio molecular dynamics are very computationally expensive and have strong limitations on the size- and timescales of the simulations. The Matlantis™ atomistic simulator allowed to overcome these limitations and allowed to study interfacial reactions at an increased size and timescale.
Furthermore, the ability of Matlantis™ to predict approximated Bader atomic charges at every simulation timestep made it possible to elucidate electronic changes throughout the entire simulations, which would be impossible with conventional ab-initio techniques at this scale.
Thanks to these significant advances over conventional methods, it was possible to determine the stability of the solid-state electrolyte and its formed solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer in a total trajectory analysis approach.
The webinar will be held via Zoom from 9:00 to 10:00 CEST on Monday 10 July 2023. Registration is free.
Who should attend:
Computational scientists who are facing limitations of their current calculation/simulation approach
Researchers who are interested in discovering game-changing new materials using computer simulation
Anyone who is interested in knowing about what’s happening at the forefront of materials informatics

Do EU Regulations for Critical Raw Materials and Fluoropolymers Support the Hydrogen Ramp Up?
Proton Exchange Membrane ( Electrolysis has been described as a pivotal technology in establishing a hydrogen economy. It involves platinum and iridium as hard-to-replace raw materials, and especially iridium is scarce and hence critical PEM also requires fluoropolymers as membrane material, which fall under the proposed PFAS ban although they are regarded as “polymers of no concern“.
In March 2023 the European Commission released its “Critical Raw Material Act” (CRMA) the European Strategy for raw materials Shortly before, the ECHA proposed the PFAS ban What does this mean for the industry? Will the proposed measures for critical raw materials serve their goal and help Europe to reach its targets for the ramp up of hydrogen and PEM Electrolysis, respectively? Can fluoropolymers in PEM Electrolyzers be replaced, and by when? What does this uncertainty make with the investments in Europe?
Das Fraunhofer IWKS und das Fraunhofer LBF haben gemeinsam den Wasserstoffstammtisch Rhein/Main ins Leben gerufen. Ziel des Stammtisches ist es, interessierten Unternehmen und weiteren Akteuren der Wasserstoffwirtschaft die Möglichkeit zum interdisziplinären Austausch untereinander und mit den Wissenschaftlern des Leistungszentrums Wasserstoff zu ermöglichen.

The graduate school Energy Science and Engineering is glad to invite you to join the international winter school from 6–8 December 2022 in Darmstadt. The event will explore scientific and technical aspects of the production and use of carbon-free and sustainable energy storage systems such as hydrogen and iron, as well as the socio-economic aspects such as multi-level governance of hydrogen strategies. Participants will thus gain a unique insight into current challenges and solution approaches in an energy landscape that is changing daily.
Hybrid Event – 6–8 December 2022 You will find all details here!

Scope
The transformation of energy systems is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. While climate neutrality and the reduction of fossil CO2 emissions were in the foreground in the past years, security of supply has become a high priority since the Russian war against Ukraine. However, a sustainable and resilient energy supply also means moving away from fossil fuels. To increasingly replace them with wind and solar, chemical energy carriers such as hydrogen are key to storing, transporting and using renewable energy. As another complementary option to hydrogen, metals such as iron have come more into the focus of science and industry as carbon-free energy storage. Whatever the technical solution may be, it must not be evaluated separately, but always in combination with the socio-economic aspects.
Who should attend
The Winter School Energy Science and Engineering is directed towards doctoral candidates and postdocs performing research on energy systems, energy policy or the energy enconomy, as well as practicing engineers and researchers involved in R&D of energy systems.

According to Handelsblatt, in the spring of 2022, Green Hydrogen became cheaper than the one produced from natural gas. This development was unexpected and caused by geopolitical changes resulting in a price increase of natural gas as feedstock for grey and blue hydrogen. Nevertheless, in the long run, the community needs to work on the cost structure of Green Hydrogen to support the ramp-up. How can we make this happen? How does the actual situation influence the long term trend?
Discuss with the experts and your peers: Cost competitiveness of Green Hydrogen!
