Entente CordIAle Workshop

The inaugural Entente CordIAle Workshop marks the first engagement under a new AI collaboration between the UK and France. Bringing together senior researchers from the Saclay cluster (Institut Polytechnique de Paris, HEC Paris, and Université Paris-Saclay) and colleagues from Oxford and Cambridge Universities, the workshop focuses on identifying strategic areas for collaboration in artificial intelligence, with a particular emphasis on AI for science and open innovation.

The programme combines keynote talks, panel discussions, and working sessions, showcasing research directions in AI for science and exploring opportunities for collaboration within this strategic partnership.

Entry: Registration required. Please email Elinor Pegler (ep742@cam.ac.uk)

Speaker: Mark Symes, University of Glasgow

The storage of renewably-generated energy as hydrogen via the electrolysis of water is a fundamental cornerstone of a sustainable hydrogen economy. Conventional electrolysers usually require stable power inputs in order to operate effectively and safely and so may be unsuited to harnessing renewable power, which is often intermittent and diffuse. Decoupled Electrolysis (see, for example: Nature Chem. 2013, 5, 403-409; Science, 2014, 345, 1326-1330; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2016, 138, 6707–6710; Joule, 2018, 2, 1390-1395; Adv. Energy Mater. 2020, 2002453; Electrochim. Acta, 2020, 331, 135255) has the potential to overcome some of the challenges surrounding electrolysis using low and/or sporadic power inputs (especially those related to gas crossover) as the decoupling of the two half reactions of water splitting allows the oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions to be performed at different times, in different places and at rates that are not linked to each other. In this talk, we shall give an overview of decoupled electrolysis using liquid redox mediators

This talk is part of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Flows (IEEF) series.
