Electrolyzers and fuel cells functional materials therefore need to be high performant, homogenous and cost effective in large amounts in the midterm scale by the end of this decade. Lignocellulosic fibre based materials from wooden and vegetable sources play an increasing role by pointing these properties, controlled by special paper making techniques, no matters if functional materials have to be metallic, ceramic or polymer based.

So the wide application fields of energy techniques are under closer inspection of R&D activities looking toward completely novel material developments of flat functional membranes, separators, electrodes, catalyst carriers, porous transport layers, compact membrane electrode assemblies, solid electrolyte layers, electrode electrolyte composites / electrode separator assemblies, bipolar separator plates and so forth.

The first PTS Conference “Paper for Power” aims on connecting people all over the world working in those fields.
