Screen-Printed Electrodes Store Alternative Energy

Aug-25-18 Screen-printed electrodes could offer an efficient way for remote areas to store energy off the grid.

Building on previous work in finding an alternative way to manufacture electrodes, the team from Manchester Metropolitan University created the process of screen-printing electrodes using a carbon-based ink. The printing process is not only more affordable than previous methods, it also allows for novel shapes and mass production. The electrodes will be installed in a stack of water electrolysis cells and connected to a renewable energy system, where the hydrogen created by the electrolyzer can be stored for use in fuel cells as needed.
