Welcome to Power2Hype!

Mariana Carola & Joana Oliveira (Communication and Dissemination team)

Power2Hype is a Horizon Europe funded project, composed by a consortium of 11 partners with knowledge and expertise revolving around the electro-chemical sector and that cover different links of the H2O2 value chain. The consortium is made of solid, experienced and leading industrial organizations, renowned universities, research institutes and technology developers as well a communication agency.

Power2Hype aims to establish a sustainable route for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production based on air and water as only feedstock and renewable energy as the sole energy source. Hydrogen peroxide will be synthesized by paired electrolysis at both the cathode and anode using an innovative custom-made 200% electrolyser. Aiming for the electrification and decentralization of the chemical industry, Power2Hype proposes the TRL 5-6 demonstration of electrolytic hydrogen peroxide production at any given concentration (from 20 to 99 %) at the site where it is needed, e.g., for sanitation purposes, bleaching applications or even as propulsion fuel.

The work is divided into a set of interlinked R&D activities structured in three project phases.

The first phase of Power2Hype will address the fundamental aspects of the electrochemical H2O2 production. Partners will work on the design, synthesis, and characterization of advanced component materials, such as electrocatalysts, gas diffusion layers, anode materials and membranes.

The second project phase will focus on the cell design and scale-up for the electrochemical process and on the integration with downstream processing of the product mixtures.

The final phase of Power2Hype will concentrate all efforts on the demonstration of the integrated electrochemical process at TRL 5-6, including the downstream processing of the generated aqueous hydrogen peroxide solutions to yield concentrated H2O2 of commercial value. Furthermore, the experimental work will be accompanied and supported by the implementation of a virtual demonstrator, enabling extensive modelling and predictive process integration and scale-up. The virtual demonstrator provides the ability to follow the dynamics of fluctuating renewable power supply. Based on experimental data and system modelling, the economic, environmental and societal performance and impact potential of the Power2Hype technology will be critically assessed.

Join us in our journey to establish a greener and more economically viable route for H2O2 production.
