The key to boosting hydrogen storage in metal nanoparticles is understanding the role of defects, conclude physicist Andrea Baldi (Dutch Institute for Fundamental Energy Research DIFFER) and scientists from Delft, Amsterdam and Groningen in Physical Review Letters.

At the COP24 UN Conference on Climate Change in Katowice, ITER's (and former DIFFER colleague) Greg De Temmerman gave a strong overview of the potential of fusion energy and progress at the ITER site.

DIFFER has landed an Enabling Research grant from the Horizon2020 programme EUROfusion.

Zon en wind leveren een steeds groter deel van onze elektriciteit, maar de elektriciteitsvraag beslaat maar 20% van ons totale energieverbruik. Met zonnebrandstoffen kunnen we duurzame stroom omzetten in schone, CO2-neutrale brandstoffen. Lees er alles over in deze Zonnebrandstoffen-special van het NTvN - Nederlands Tijdschrift voor Natuurkunde.

The International Tokamak Physics Activity (ITPA) has appointed DIFFER group leader Prof. Marco de Baar as chair of its Realtime Specialists Working Group (RT-SWG). The ITPA is an international framework organised by the global ITER fusion project to coordinate fusion research.
