Project R-12321

On the transition to more Renewable Energy in power-to-X applications "T-REX" (Research)

This project focuses on research in the field of Power-to-X, i.e., the conversion of CO2 into renewable fuels via electrified routes. The technologies are being developed at the universities of Hasselt and Antwerp, VITO and imec, and are based on the direct use of solar energy or linked to a green grid. Emphasis is on the analysis of robust (electro)catalysts, stability and efficiency, all supported by chemical reaction modeling (UMons). The research trajectory is reinforced by techno-economic and life cycle analysis.
