DESCRIPTION:Yushan Yan\, Henry B. du Pont Chair of Chemical and Biomolecula
 r Engineering\, University of Delaware\n\nTowards platinum-free fuel cells 
 for affordable zero-emission vehicles\n\nAbstract: Green hydrogen from wind
  and solar electricity is necessary to decarbonize certain sectors of our e
 conomy that are inaccessible by renewable electricity\, and it has the pote
 ntial to reduce more than 30% of the global carbon emission. For the transp
 ortation sector\, the decarbonization by green hydrogen is through the use 
 in fuel cells. Green hydrogen refers to hydrogen that is produced by water 
 electrolyzers powered by renewable electricity. For low temperature fuel ce
 lls and electrolyzers\, polymer electrolytes play a critical role in contro
 lling their cost\, performance\, and durability\, and consequently their ec
 onomic viability. In this presentation\, I will focus on our work on hydrox
 ide exchange membrane fuel cells (HEMFCs). More specifically I will highlig
 ht the progress we have made in developing one of the most stable membranes
  and the activity targets we have developed for the nonprecious metal catal
 ysts. I will also show the work that has been done by the community for sol
 ving the CO2 and water management problems.
