Project of the TU Eindhoven<\/h2>\n

Joost van der Kraan, a mechanical engineering student at Eindhoven University of Technology, has put his studies on hold to act as team manager of SOLID. His role involves bringing the team together and motivating them, and stimulating their shared mission: contributing to the energy transition and sustainability. \u201cHydrogen is a hot topic in the energy transition,\u201d Joost explains. \u201cIt helps to make industries more sustainable where electricity is insufficient or where grid congestion is a problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Iron Based Hydrogen Storage<\/h2>\n

The technique the team is developing offers a revolutionary way to safely and efficiently store hydrogen, a sustainable but difficult to handle gas, in iron pellets. \u201cHydrogen needs to be stored in large tankers, which is inefficient for transportation,\u201d says Joost. \u201cAlso, it easily escapes from tanks. Our Iron Based Hydrogen Storage method solves these problems and offers a safe and efficient storage option.\u201d Like any innovative project, they had to overcome obstacles. \u201cThe biggest challenges we faced were financing and gaining expertise in working with hydrogen and high temperatures,\u201d Joost shares. \u201cHowever, we managed these challenges well by pooling knowledge and finding the right resources.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Importance of the WoTS for SOLID<\/h2>\n

For a student team, participating in trade fairs like WoTS is invaluable. \u201cOur technology is still relatively unknown,\u201d says Joost. \u201cWoTS offers us a platform to show our innovation to a wider audience and to talk to companies that can help us achieve our mission.\u201d The trade fair allows the team to gain visibility and make valuable connections within the industry. \u201cWe want to learn what companies need and how we can make our technology a success together,\u201d adds Joost. \u201cIt offers a platform to show what you stand for and how you can contribute.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Looking ahead to the future<\/h2>\n

While SOLID\u2019s goal is not to commercialize the technology itself, they do want to bridge the gap between academic development and industrial application. \u201cWe are working on more efficient and larger installations that can be tested in industry,\u201d says Joost. \u201cOur goal is to bring the technology to a point where industry can start working with it.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Networks and Development<\/h2>\n

Networking during WoTS offers many advantages for the further development of Iron Based Hydrogen Storage. \u201cIt allows us to talk to people from the industry in real time about their expectations and needs,\u201d says Joost. \u201cThe knowledge and expertise you gain are indispensable, and the new contacts you make can be valuable for further collaboration.\u201d SOLID is looking for partners from the entire hydrogen chain: producers, users, transporters and installers. \u201cWe want to talk to everyone in that chain to lay the framework for the future of this technology,\u201d says Joost.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Come visit the Student Pavilion<\/h2>\n

Are you interested in the future of hydrogen storage and do you want to contribute to the energy transition? Then visit SOLID at the Studeten Pavilion at WoTS. \u201cTell us where you are in the chain, so that we can continue to work together on a solution,\u201d Joost invites.<\/p>\n

Don't miss this opportunity to be part of an innovation that can change the world of energy storage. Visit the Student Pavilion and discover how their technology can make a difference in the future of sustainable energy.
\nRegister for a visit from September 24 to 27.<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
