Our PhD student, Sara Kurakin, participated at the EPHyC 2025 in Triest and presented the project scope.

Redeem presented their PEC-cell at SNOC in November 2025, showcasing the latest technological developments achieved within the project.

The presentation highlighted the cell’s key features and demonstrated the progress made in PEC cell development.

Redeem participated at the 9th International Conference on Semiconductor Photochemistry in September 2025 with a poster presentation.

Redeem participated in the CECP in Bad Hofgastein and presented a poster.

Redeem delivered an oral presentation at the COAST 2026 conference in Vienna.

HyCentA presented the poster TiO2 photoanodes for photoelectrochemical water splitting at ISEC in Graz in April 2026.

The presentation highlighted the development of the test bench and key screening results achieved within the project.

Both Fraunhofer IWS and IKTS contributed with oral presentations at 12 RIPT in June 2026 in Jülich.

Redeem participated with an oral presentation at 30th IUPAC Symposium on Photochemistry in July 2026.

Fraunhofer IWS presented a poster at Thermal Spray of Suspensions & Solutions Symposium + EBCs in September 2026.

Redeem contributed a poster presentation to the GDCh Electrochemistry Meeting in Bayreuth.

A major milestone for the project: our first scientific publication has been published in May 2026, in the journal of power sources. Shuang Ma Andersen from SDU is the lead author of the paper, “Revisit with a New Perspective - Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) as Superior Co-Catalysts for Photocatalytic and Photoelectrocatalytic Water Splitting: from Production to Recycling”.

The publication provides a comprehensive overview of current knowledge in the field and establishes an important scientific foundation for the project’s work.

At the CCESC 2026 conference in September in Madrid, Redeem successfully delivered an oral presentation, sharing key research insights and engaging in scientific exchange with international experts in the field of clean energy.

CETIM participated in October 2026 in the 27th LCA Symposium organized by the SETAC in Bruges and explained the life cycle assessments conducted within the project SAHARA. These assessments verified that the technologies investigated for producing hydrogen from solar energy improve process sustainability and reduce costs.
