Environmental Benefits
Fuel cell and hydrogen based technologies can contribute towards
significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and
therefore assisting in combating the effects of climate change.

Non-PGM catalysts
The ideal industrial goal is to manufacture PEMFC stacks for
transport application with Non-PGM catalysts, and with performance
and durability comparable to the targets defined for Pt.
transport application with Non-PGM catalysts, and with performance
and durability comparable to the targets defined for Pt.
CRESCENDO is a European project involving two large industrial partners, an SME, and five universities / research institutes in an ambitious proposal that will require critical mass, pooled complementary skills and competences to reach its goals.
Starting date: 1st January 2018 - Duration: 45 months - Coordinator: CNRS, France
