Exploratory focus of the Helmholtz Initiative 'FuncHy: Functional Materials for mobile Hydrogen Storage' is the development of novel light-weight hydrogen storage materials with high gravimetric capacity (> 5 mass%), low operating temperatures (< 150°C) and fast sorption kinetics. The project combines various scientific and technical approaches and methods, considering the total value-added chain from fundamentals of materials science to production on industrial scale. For this, FuncHy assembles five renowned European research institutions with complementary experience in the field of hydrogen storage materials. Together with associated partners from industry and academia, FuncHy provides a basis for a European centre of excellence for hydrogen technology for mobile applications.
