Advanced CharacTerIsation of Fuel cell stacks for automotive applications (ACTIF) (ACTIF)
Description
The project ACTIF aims at optimized operational strategies for fuel cell systems regarding the three main aspects efficiency, life-time and costs on the stack level. This will be enabled by enhanced understanding of fuel cell stacks on the basis of advanced time-resolved characterization techniques and mathematical modeling. The project is a French-German-Swiss initiative for research collaboration on fuel cells for automotive application.
