Durability is a major challenge for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) for heavy-duty (HD) applications. To meet this particular challenge for truck applications the CleanH2 project PEMTASTIC (Grant 101101433) will develop a new membrane-electrode-assembly (MEA) based on a model-based design using innovative materials targeting high operation temperatures (105°C). On 07.-08.02.2023 the consortium partners met in Stuttgart to initiate the 3-years R&D project coordinated by DLR.
