Centre of Excellence on Innovative & Integrated ECOsystem for Green HydroGEN (ECOGEN)
Schematic of R&D planned under proposed CoE for green H2 ecosystem
Overview & Objectives
A Centre of Excellence on Innovative and Integrated Ecosystem for Green Hydrogen (ECOGEN) has been recently established at IIT Kanpur funded by UP Govt.
ECOGEN aims at enhancing the efficiency of the green hydrogen generation system, technology adaptation, indigenisation, and cost reduction for the green hydrogen value chain.
Development of Novel Technologies for:
- Electrochemical, photochemical, and thermochemical routes for green hydrogen generation.
- Solid and liquid forms of green hydrogen storage and safe transportation.
- System integration for green hydrogen generation and utilization with fuel cell technologies.
