In brief R&D: Genvia for solid oxide electrolysis. CEA-Liiten: lithium-free passivated cells
Specialised in technologies for the production of decarbonated hydrogen,
Genvia was recently created, notably by Schlumberger New Energy and the CEA. It will be headed from March 1st by Florence Lambert, former director of CEA-Liten. The company will promote CEA's high-performance solid oxide electrolysis technology. It is reversible, switching from electrolysis to fuel cells.
