Long live the electrolyser

News - public release Created on 10 Jun 2026 Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY

Electrolysers produce hydrogen. Fuel cells, in turn, generate electricity from hydrogen. Both technologies are considered key building blocks of the energy transition, offering well-established solutions for storing, transporting and producing renewable energy. However, there is a challenge: the platinum catalysts often used in these systems gradually lose performance under high operating loads. In a sense, they “wear out” too quickly, increasing the costs of hydrogen technologies.
