Advent Technologies has said that its second-generation fuel cell membrane electrode assembly (MEA) technology offers more than double the power density of its legacy MEAs, has significant potential for lifetime improvement and “superior” heat rejection.
The US-headquartered firm, with operations in Greece, said that its Advent MEA G2 technology, developed under a US Department of Energy (DOE) programme, for high-temperature PEM (HT-PEM) fuel cells had overcome challenges from the first-generation technology.
Designed to use e-methanol, RNG and hydrogen, the legacy HT-PEM MEAs originally offered low power density and low lifetimes compared to low-temperature PEM fuel cells, despite high thermal management efficiency.
