Abstract
MEAsureD targets to provide advanced, cost-effective proton exchange membranes (PEM) and stable electrodes for the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) at higher temperatures (above160 oC). The innovative HT-PEMs are based on the ion-pair technology that has been demonstrated recently as an alternative competitive for the HDV sector. Further development will be held during MEAsureD in 3 technological pillars (electrodes, membrane and MEA assembly) The incorporation and simulation of the advanced MEA into a FC stack will ensure sustainability in Heavy duty Vehicle (HDV) applications without sacrificing performance and durability bringing the suggested technology in TRL4. The strategic objective of MEAsureD is to combine experimental approaches and simulations/modelling to improve the understanding and prediction of the MEA performance and durability by developing of testing procedures and harmonisation activities in coordination with JRC.
