West Virginia University engineers have received a wave of federal support for research projects that will help slash the cost of clean hydrogen. The three U.S. Department of Energy grants for WVU studies total $15.8 million and are part of funds authorized by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law for research that advances the “Hydrogen Shot” goal of cutting the cost of clean hydrogen production to $1 per kilogram.

X-ray Spectral Microscopy Reveals The Active Edges of a Water-Splitting Material
Splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen is a key process for energy storage. The chemical transitions involved in splitting water require energy, so researchers are designing more efficient new electrodes with energy saving catalytic properties.
A FORCE to be reckoned with: Computer modeling for optimal energy partnerships
Integrating nuclear power into broader energy systems, including renewable energy sources and heat-intensive industries, could improve flexibility and unlock revenue streams for nuclear power producers.
New catalyst can turn smelly hydrogen sulfide into a cash cow
Rice University engineers and scientists have created a sweet way for petrochemical refineries to turn a smelly byproduct into cash.
