S2H - Solar to hydrogen
The research team is involved in the field of sustainable hydrogen production coupled with concentrated solar power and energy storage systems, required to improve the dispatchability of solar energy.
Our work combines theoretical modeling with the experimental results obtained in collaboration with ENEA laboratories. The main research topics are:
- Membrane reactor for low temperature steam reforming
- Thermochemical storage through endothermic/exothermic reactions and its integration in CSP plant
- Thermochemical water splitting cycles
- High temperature electrolysis in molten carbonate cells
