Advent Technologies Holdings, Inc. has announced a major technological breakthrough in its strategic collaboration with Airbus, aimed at advancing the next generation Ion Pair™ MEA for high-temperature proton exchange membrane (HT-PEM) fuel cell technology. This achievement marks the successful completion of a critical interim milestone, enabling the project to move toward even more ambitious performance targets.
Through a combination of innovative membrane electrode assembly (MEA) reconfiguration and targeted hardware enhancements, Advent has significantly increased power density and enhanced overall system efficiency.
This breakthrough not only validates the robustness of Advent’s HT-PEM platform for demanding aviation applications but also opens new pathways for broader adoption in other high-performance sectors such as defence, heavy-duty mobility, and off-grid power generation. It reflects Advent’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of clean energy technology and delivering commercially viable solutions that meet the evolving needs of global partners and stakeholders. As the project progresses towards its next set of milestones, Advent remains focused on accelerating innovation, strengthening strategic partnerships, and creating long-term value for customers and investors alike.
Emory De Castro, Chief Technology Officer of the company, stated: “We continue to work closely with the team at Airbus for their next generation hydrogen electric propulsion system. Advent’s HT-PEM membrane electrode assembly is an integral part of the fuel cell, and our technology enables the engines to be efficiently cooled with smaller radiators that reduces weight and drag on the aircraft.”
Gary Herman, CEO of Advent, stated: “Our membrane technology is unsurpassed and offers a versatile clean energy solution across multiple industries including aviation, marine, automotive, and defence.”
