NWO and the National Growth Fund programme Battery Competence Cluster NL (BCC-NL) are awarding nearly 14.5 million euros to three projects for the call 'Technology development for circular batteries'. One of the projects is 'REDOX BLEND: REDOX flow batteries with Large ENergy Density', with DIFFER as one of the consortium partners.

Producing hydrogen using cheap, abundant materials without compromising the performance is an appealing concept. But how to turn this into reality? In his research, Ameya Ranade brings together two cutting-edge fields: nuclear fusion and electrochemistry.

The Catalytic and Electrochemical Processes for Energy Applications (CEPEA) group has reached an inspiring milestone: 50 peer-reviewed publications with DIFFER affiliation, achieved in nine years since establishing its own laboratory facilities.

NWO and the National Growth Fund programme GroenvermogenNL are awarding 19.3 million euros to the HyFINE consortium for increasing the sustainability of the synthesis of specialty and fine chemicals. This can make an important contribution to making the Dutch chemical industry more sustainable.

Two postdoctoral researchers of DIFFER have been awarded a EUROfusion grant. With the Engineering Grant (EEG), Maria Morbey will work on some of the key technological questions that arise when realising fusion energy. The Research Grant (ERG) enables Stefan Dasbach to develop innovative ideas aligned with EUROfusion’s Roadmap to Fusion Energy.
