Fuel cell and electrolyser testing

Understanding durability and performance

We carry out the following tests on proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells and electrolysers:

• Single cell and short stack testing up to 2 kW (PEM fuel cells)
• PEM water electrolyser testing up to 80 A
• Instrumented single cell testing - in situ measurement of potential, humidity, temperature, localised current density
• Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (bulk and localised)
• Corrosion testing of metallic bipolar plates / current collectors
• Electrochemical characterisation of electrocatalysts
• In situ measurement of hydrogen impurity concentration using gas chromatography
• Imaging and dimensional metrology of membrane-electrode assemblies and other fuel cell components, including scanning electron microscopy
