Sustainable Carbon Nanomaterials for Electrochemical Energy Conversion in Hydrogen Fuel Cells
The Hydrogen Economy will help to shift society away from fossil fuels and contribute to decarbonisation. Electrochemical processes are at the heart of the hydrogen economy providing a means to convert renewable energy into green hydrogen via electrolysis or converting hydrogen into electrical power using fuel cells.
