Esslingen, Germany – The Ertl Symposium, honoring Nobel Laureate Gerhard Ertl, took place from June 26 to June 29, 2024. Hosted by the ERTL Center at the University of Stuttgart, this year’s theme was laying the foundations for upcycling within electrochemistry.
Key topics included electrolysers, fuel cells, catalysts, and analysis techniques. Presentations were delivered by invited scientists, providing detailed insights into the structure and development of electrolysers and fuel cells.
The German Aerospace Center (DLR) played a significant role in organizing the event. Tobias Morawietz from DLR showcased the REDHy project with a poster (see image below) and gave a presentation on analyzing electrolyser materials using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM).
The symposium emphasized advancing sustainable energy solutions and highlighted innovative research in electrochemistry.
