However, performance and durability without supporting electrolytes (SELs) remain inferior to PEMWE and AWE and little is known about the role and impact of the SELs. This study investigates the effects of SELs used as anolyte solutions in HEMWEs including cation-type, anion-type, SEL conductivity and pH, presence of carbonates and increased cation/OH- ratios on cell voltage and stability. We report our findings that (i) cell potential and high-frequency resistance did not correlate with anolyte SEL conductivity, (ii) cation-type influences cell voltage at low current densities (<50 mA cm-2) as predicted by half-cell measurements, (iii) increased cation/OH- ratio causes increased overpotentials, and (iv) carbonates are exchanged in the HEM but removed via self-purging at high current density.

Published on March 1st, 2019. Group III-nitride semiconductors exhibit many ideal characteristics for solar water splitting, including a tunable energy bandgap across nearly the entire solar spectrum and suitable band edge positions for water oxidation and proton reduction under visible and near-infrared light irradiation. To date, however, the best reported energy conversion efficiency for III-nitride semiconductor photocathodes is still below 1\%. Here we report on the demonstration of a relatively efficient p-type In0.42Ga0.58N photocathode, which is monolithically integrated on an n-type nonplanar Si wafer through a GaN nanowire tunnel junction. The open pillar design, together with the nonplanar Si wafer can significantly maximize light trapping, whereas the tunnel junction reduces the interfacial resistance and enhances the extraction of photo-generated electrons. In addition, photodeposited Pt nanoparticles on InGaN nanowire surfaces significantly improve the cathodic performance. The nanowire photocathode exhibits a photocurrent density of 12.3 mA cm-2 at 0 V vs. RHE and an onset potential of 0.79 V vs. RHE under AM 1.5 G one-sun illumination. The maximum applied bias photon-to-current efficiency reaches 4\% at ~0.52 V vs. RHE, which is one order of magnitude higher than the previously reported values for III-nitride photocathodes. Significantly, no performance degradation was measured for over 30 h solar water splitting with a steady photocurrent density ~12 mA cm-2 without using any extra surface protection, which is attributed to the spontaneous formation of N-terminated surfaces of InGaN nanowires to protect against photocorrosion.

Published on April 5th, 2019. As ever-increasing amounts of renewable electricity enter the energy supply mix on a regional, national and international basis, greater emphasis is being placed on energy conversion and storage technologies to deal with the oscillations, excess and lack of electricity. Hydrogen generation via proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is one technology that offers a pathway to store large amounts of electricity in the form of hydrogen. The challenges to widespread adoption of PEM water electrolyzers lie in their high capital and operating costs which both need to be reduced through R\&D. An evaluation of reported PEMWE performance data in the literature reveals that there are excessive variations of in situ performance results that make it difficult to draw conclusions on the pathway forward to performance optimization and future R\&D directions. To enable the meaningful comparison of in situ performance evaluation across laboratories there is an obvious need for standardization of materials and testing protocols. Herein, we address this need by reporting the results of a round robin test effort conducted at the laboratories of five contributors to the IEA Electrolysis Annex 30. For this effort a method and equipment framework were first developed and then verified with respect to its feasibility for measuring water electrolysis performance accurately across the various laboratories. The effort utilized identical sets of test articles, materials, and test cells, and employed a set of shared test protocols. It further defined a minimum skeleton of requirements for the test station equipment. The maximum observed deviation between laboratories at 1\ A\ cm-2 at cell temperatures of 60\ {\textdegree}C and 80\ {\textdegree}C was 27 and 20\ mV, respectively. The deviation of the results from laboratory to laboratory was 2{\textendash}3 times higher than the lowest deviation observed at one single lab and test station. However, the highest deviations observed were one-tenth of those extracted by a literature survey on similar material sets. The work endorses the urgent need to identify one or more reference sets of materials in addition to the method and equipment framework introduced here, to enable accurate comparison of results across the entire community. The results further imply that cell temperature control appears to be the most significant source of deviation between results, and that care must be taken with respect to break-in conditions and cell electrical connections for meaningful performance data.

Abstract
Published on October 17th, 2019 Hydrogen production through proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is regarded as a very promising technology that offers a highly efficient and robust path to store electrical energy in form of hydrogen and further enables the integration of renewable energy into the electrical grid 1-3. The total cell voltage of a single PEM water electrolyzer cell is composed of the open circuit voltage, activation overpotential, diffusion overpotential, and ohmic loss overpotential 4. The total voltage of the cell can be expressed as Eq(1) 5. V=V_OCV+V_act+V_ohm+V_diff (1) Where V_OCV is the Nernst potential which is also called the reversible voltage and can be calculated from the Nernst equation or Gibbs free energy, V_act is the activation overpotential due to the electrochemical reaction and it represents the overpotential to drive the electron transfer and electrochemical reaction kinetics as described by the Butler-Volmer model, V_ohm is the ohmic overpotential caused by the resistances of the electronic/ionic components and interfacial contact resistances, and V_diff is the diffusion overpotential related to mass transport. Porous transport layers (PTLs) are key components in PEMWE. They facilitate mass transport, thermal and electrical conduction, and are required to sustain a good contact with adjacent components 6-8. It is expected that various PTLs with different structures and wettability exhibit nonidentical performance in PEMWE. In this study, a general model is established to investigate the PTL parameters of four inherently different PTLs, including non-treated Toray paper, PTFE treated Toray paper, sintered titanium particles and Ti felt. SEM images highlighting the structures of these PTL materials are shown in Figure 1. The materials, which differed in thickness, porosity, material and composition were evaluated with identical MEAs over a range of operating conditions for model validation. The resulting data indicate that the hydrophobic additives in the Toray paper will decrease the PEMWE performance due to increased mass transport loss and ohmic loss. Ti felt with similar thickness and porosity as non-treated Toray paper showed slightly reduced performance due to its higher ohmic loss. Sintered Ti particle PTLs exhibit much higher ohmic resistance than Ti felt and nontreated Toray paper, which may be attributed to its significantly larger thickness and/or an increased contact resistance. The experimental data was employed to validate the MATLAB/Simulink model which enables the simulation of the contribution of each overpotential. The model was used to successfully describe the effects of PTFE loading on PEMWE performance, as shown in Figure 2. The hydrophobic treatment resulted, as expected, in detrimental performance effects. The diffusion loss of a 20\% PTFE treated Toray paper is significantly higher than that of the nontreated PTLs (Figure 2). The modeling results also indicate that the change of the wettability of the PTLs by hydrophobic additives/agents, impacted not only the diffusion loss significantly, but also affected the ohmic loss and activation loss. This was specifically detrimental to PEMWE cell performance when operating at high current densities. The model that was validated in this study can be used to predict the effects of key PTL parameters and utilized to optimize PEMWE performance.

This paper evaluates iridium (Ir) and Ir oxide nanoparticles for baseline oxygen evolution performance and durability in rotating disk electrode (RDE) half-cells. These efforts address a literature gap, developing best practices for RDE testing by focusing on ink preparation and test protocols that affect measured activities. While Ir nanoparticles produce double the mass activity of Ir oxide in half-cells, the benefit is not observed in single-cells due to near-surface oxidation during conditioning. Ir oxide nanoparticle durability, however, is improved in both RDE and membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) due to slower dissolution kinetics. Establishing separate Ir and Ir oxide baselines are critical since RDE may overestimate Ir performance and underestimate Ir durability when compared to Ir oxide in MEAs. While half-cells may be a reasonable gauge for oxygen evolution performance, the technique is limited in approximating long-term durability since dissolution dominates loss at electrolysis-relevant potentials.

Published on January 4th, 2019. Many energy storage and conversion devices rely on processes that take place at complex interfaces, where structural and chemical properties are often difficult to probe under operating conditions. A primary example is solar water splitting using high-performance photoelectrochemical cells, where surface chemistry, including native oxide formation, affects hydrogen generation. In this Perspective, we discuss some of the challenges associated with interrogating interface chemistry, and how they may be overcome by integrating high-level first-principles calculations of explicit interfaces with ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and direct spectroscopic simulations. We illustrate the benefit of this combined approach toward insights into native oxide chemistry at prototypical InP/water and GaP/water interfaces. This example suggests a more general roadmap for obtaining a realistic and reliable description of the chemistry of complex interfaces by combining state-of-the-art computational and experimental techniques.

The phase stability of all fuel cell materials was found to be good with no additional phase formation noted either during heating or after prolonged periods at temperature. An increase in the crystallite size was observed for both GDC and Ni. Non-linear thermal expansion observed in these materials was related to partial reduction of cerium ions (GDC) and due to a Curie point transition (Ni). A wide range of mineral phases were observed in the coal samples and these phases were found to change significantly with temperature. Mineral phases consistent with the ash composition and existing literature on Victorian brown coal were assigned to phases observed.}, issn = {1573-4803}, doi = {10.1007/s10853-015-9712-7}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1007/s10853-015-9712-7}, author = {Adam C.

The average degradation rate of 35.5~μV~h-1 per cell is measured. The 4th MEA of the stack is offline investigated and characterized. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) shows that the charge transfer resistance and ionic resistance of the cell both increase. The linear sweep scan (LSV) shows the hydrogen crossover rate of the membrane has slight increase. The electron probe X-ray microanalyze (EPMA) illustrates further that Ca, Cu and Fe elements distribute in the membrane and catalyst layers of the catalyst-coated membranes (CCMs). The cations occupy the ion exchange sites of the Nafion polymer electrolyte in the catalyst layers and membrane, which results in the increase in the anode and the cathode overpotentials. The metallic impurities originate mainly from the feed water and the components of the electrolysis unit. Fortunately, the degradation was reversible and can be almost recovered to the initial performance by using 0.5~M H2SO4. This indicates the performance degradation of the stack running 7800~h is mainly caused by a recoverable contamination.}, issn = {0378-7753}, doi = {10.1016/j.jpowsour.2014.05.117}, url = {http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0378775314008106}, author = {Shucheng Sun and Zhigang Shao and Hongmei Yu and Guangfu Li and Baolian Yi} } @article {889, title = {Isothermal reduction kinetics of nickel oxide using hydrogen: Conventional and Weibull kinetic analysis}, journal = {Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids}, volume = {68}, note = {{\textquoteright}doi: 10.1021/acsenergylett.0c01132\n - I.Am.Hydrogen{\textquoteright} {\textquoteright}\n - jyoungstrom{\textquoteright} {\textquoteright}Jason thinks this is great.\n~\n - jyoungstrom{\textquoteright} {\textquoteright}\n - estechel{\textquoteright} }, pages = {2233-2246}, issn = {00223697}, doi = {10.1016/j.jpcs.2007.06.014}, url = {http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0022369707002922}, author = {B.
