AI-assisted Production of PGM-free electrodes for Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

This doctoral thesis uses artificial intelligence to develop high-performance, low-cost electrodes for anion exchange membrane water electrolysis, supporting the large scale production of green hydrogen. By creating AI-optimised, PGM-free catalyst-coated membrane electrodes, the project enables rapid screening and improvement of catalysts, ionomers, and their combinations.
