Engineers slash iridium use in electrolyzer catalyst by 80%, boosting path to affordable green hydrogen
In the global race to decarbonize, hydrogen stands out as one of the most promising clean fuels. But despite its potential to power industries and transportation without emitting carbon, producing hydrogen sustainably in a water electrolyzer has been limited by the high cost and scarcity of one critical ingredient: iridium. Now, a team of researchers at Rice has developed a new catalyst that dramatically reduces the amount of iridium needed in proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers, a key technology for generating green hydrogen from water.
