Concept of surfactant-doped polyaniline coating for gas diffusion layers

PTFE-free hydrophobisation and improved electrical conductivity: Surface-active species consisting of non-polar, negatively charged terminal groups and apolar residues attach themselves to the positively charged PANI framework, which ensures electrical conductivity.

Distribution of the ion current density in the membrane of the aged cell, expressed as a percentage compared to the initial state. This provides a detailed insight into the current distribution within the cell.

Graphical representation of the assessment across a range of different storage technologies

Comparison of various parameters (storage capacity, TRL, efficiency, cost, safety and commercial availability) for the storage technologies under consideration. These include liquid hydrogen, compressed hydrogen, organic hydrogen carriers, metal hydrides, ammonia, but also redox flow and lithium-based battery systems, pumped storage and chemical looping hydrogen (HyLoop).

Global Energy Consumption of network connected devices 2010-2030

The figure shows a graph with the annual energy consumption of network-connected devices in different operating modes - network active and network standby - as well as with the upstream energy consumption of networks and data centers. By 2030, the total global energy consumption of network-connected devices will increase to about 1,000 TWh/yr. Device-related energy consumption in particular will increase significantly, whereas upstream energy consumption will decrease somewhat and account for about one-third of the energy consumption associated with network-connected devices. These and other graphs on the energy consumption of network-connected devices can be quantified using the EDNA Total Energy Model.
