KEROGREEN is a collaborative European project on producing green kerosene. Goal of the project is to build a container sized prouction unit. KEROGREEN has been running for 30 months now. The project published an overview on what has been achieved so far. DIFFER developed a 6 KW lab-reactor and is working on a container-sized plasmolysis module.

Green hydrogen as a means of storing electrical energy is the future. The new SCALE consortium headed by DIFFER will investigate a new approach to generate hydrogen. DIFFER, together with the TU/e and a number of other parties was recently awarded 1.25 M€ of funding by NWO for this new project to prepare the ground for the next generation of so-called AEM water electrolysers.

The Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) has launched a new institute during the Opening of the Academic Year 2020/2021: the Eindhoven Institute for Renewable Energy Systems - EIRES. During an online talk show, State Secretary Stientje van Veldhoven has pushed the button to officially open the new institute. EIRES, with Richard van de Sanden as scientific director and Mark Boneschanscher as managing director, is the third TU/e institute next to ICMS and EAISI. DIFFER is a strategic partner, especially due to the strong synergies with its Solar Fuels research theme.

DIFFER is going to research a novel plasma-aided electrochemical reactor concept to cost-effectively convert small, common molecules into useful building blocks for the production of materials, chemicals and synthetic fuels. DIFFER researchers Floran Peeters and Richard van de Sanden scored an NWO ENW-XS project to fund their ground-breaking research project to replace the cathode of a conventional solid-oxide electrolyzer cell with a hollow cathode glow discharge fed by He/O2 gas.
