At the hy-fcell - International Expo and Conference, the hy-fcell Award was presented in three categories.
In the "Research & Development" category, the prize went to the HySelect project.
The HySelect project has received the hy-fcell Award in the "Research & Development" category. The consortium consisting of the German Aerospace Center, Aalto University and GRILLO Chemicals GmbH is researching sulphur dioxide depolarised electrolysis (SDE).
HySelect, an EU project funded by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership aims to demonstrate the production of renewable hydrogen (H2) by splitting water via concentrating solar thermal (CST) with an attractive efficiency and cost, through the Hybrid Sulphur cycle (HyS). The aim of the project is to introduce, develop and operate under real conditions a complete H2 production chain.
Transition towards a sustainable hydrogen economy
This innovation drives the transition towards a sustainable hydrogen economy, says the hy-fcell – International Expo and Conference, one of the leading international trade fairs and conferences for hydrogen and fuel cell technology.
"This is really a milestone for us, it proves that we are on the right track with this technology.", says Dimitrios Dimitrakis, project coordinator, after receiving the award certificate on behalf of the consortium.
Dimitrios Dimitrakis, project coordinator of HySelect, received the award certificate on behalf of the consortium. Afterwards he gave the hy-fcell team in this video interview some insights into his achievement and what receiving the award means for his team.

In addition to the “Research & Development” category, the prize was awarded in two other categories. In the “Products & Markets” category, EIFHYTEC, a European industrial company, impressed the jury with a thermochemical technology for hydrogen compression. Among the “start-ups”, Electrogenos won an award for its alkaline electrolyser which aims to lower production costs for green hydrogen by up to 30 percent.
