SUMMARY

Keywords International Conference. Electrolysis and Fuel Cell Discussions 2015: The Challenge of

Zero Platinum for Oxygen Reduction

Abstract

CATAPULT organised a highly successful international conference on the challenges

of reduced Pt loading and Pt-free catalysts for oxygen reduction in fuel cells at La

Grande Motte in France, 13-16 September 2015. Attended by close to 170

international participants, it provided the opportunity to apprise the state of the art,

showcase CATAPULT results and interact with several other FCH-JU funded projects,

three of which – CATHCAT, SMARTCAT and NANOCAT were invited to share a special

session with CATAPULT dedicated to low Pt cathodes. The conference was preceded

by a Fuel Cells Fundamentals Short Course attended by 41 participants from Europe,

Asia and the Americas.

D7.2: ORGANISATION OF AN INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

I. CONTENT OF DELIVERABLE

This deliverable report describes the International Conference organised by CATAPULT (partners

CNRS/UM and PXO) "The Challenges for Zero Platinum for Oxygen Reduction". The website for the

conference may be found at http://www.efcd2015.eu/

II. DESCRIPTION OF THE CONFERENCE

The first conference under the banner Electrolysis & Fuel Cell Discussions was held at the Palais des

Congrès in La Grande Motte. This first edition was focused on the electrocatalysis of the O2 reduction

reaction.

The meeting attracted 165 participants from laboratories of 23 different countries. Most participants

came from Europe (75 %), the largest representation being from Germany, followed by France. Industry

was well represented with 27 participants from the automotive or chemical industry and OEMs.

While the focus of the meeting was on the fuel cell electrocatalysis of O2 electro-reduction by ultra-low

PGM amounts or with non-precious metal catalysts, a certain number of oral presentations and posters

were also dedicated to electrolysers and redox flow cells. The most recent advances in the field were

reported in 12 invited communications, 31 oral communications and about 80 poster presentations. The

invited speakers were:

o Yu Morimoto (Toyota central R&D labs, Japan),

o Bryan Pivovar (National Renewable Energy Laboratory, USA),

o Peter Strasser (Technische Universität Berlin, Germany),

o Di-Jia Liu (Argonne National Laboratory, USA),

o Ken-Ichiro Ota (Yokohama University, Japan),

o Sanjeev Mukerjee (Northeastern University, USA),

o Andrew Steinbach (3M Company, USA),


4

o Bruno Jousselme (CEA Saclay, France),

o Piotr Zelenay (Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA),

o Jonathan Sharman (Johnson Matthey Fuel Cells, United Kingdom),

o Plamen Atanassov (University of New Mexico, USA),

o Vojislav Stamenkovic (Argonne National Laboratory, USA).

The meeting was organised in a single session, typically alternating between presentations on low PGM

and non-PGM catalysts during the four sub-sessions run every day. Lunches in the Palais des Congrès

just a minute away from the conference room offered an excellent place for discussion between the

participants.

The conference started with a short course on fuel cell fundamentals on Sunday 13 (41 attendees),

followed by a welcome reception and the first poster session on Sunday evening, paralleled by a buffet

dinner. On Monday morning, after the conference opening, the first invited talk was given by Dr Yu

Morimoto from Toyota R&D labs, presenting the recent fuel cell car Mirai as well as discussing novel

approaches on ultralow Pt loading electrodes. Four invited talks given by university or research institute

scientists followed on Monday, on either low PGM or non-PGM catalysts for O2 reduction, but also on

low PGM catalysts for O2 evolution. On Monday evening, the second poster session took place along

with a buffet. Each of the four sessions on Tuesday was started by an invited talk. After a late afternoon

break, all participants gathered for the gala dinner on the beach side, which was much enjoyed even

though the turbulent weather only allowed watching the waves breaking on the beach 20 meters away

on that night.

Wednesday morning was dedicated to the presentation of four projects funded by the Fuel Cell and

Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH-JU), a session open to all participants. The morning session started

with an overview of the FCH-JU given by Lionel Boillot. The three poster prizes were awarded after lunch

on Wednesday afternoon. The conference closed after the invited talk given by Vojislav Stamenkovic on

advanced Pt nanostructures for oxygen reduction.

V. CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS

Abstracts of all presentations (invited, oral, poster) were provided to conference delegates in electronic

form. There is an opportunity for all presenters to contribute a full manuscript for publication in the

International Journal of Hydrogen Energy (Guest Editors: Jones, Jaouen, Cavaliere, Gasteiger).

VI. CONCLUSIONS

The work on the conference Challenges Towards Zero Platinum for Oxygen Reduction launched in

September 2014 culminated in a very visible and well-attended international conference in September

2015 that was attended by all the key researchers (national laboratories, universities, research institutes,

industry) in the field. It provided the opportunity not only for CATAPULT, but also for several other FCH

JU supported projects, to present its results in this international context. The conference was at the

highest level of scientific and technical discussion and set the reference for future conferences

dedicated to this field.
