The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to United Technologies Research Center (UTRC) to develop acid-stable, non-platinum group metal (PGM) transition-metal oxides for incorporation into proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The metal oxides would be developed using a combination of computational approaches and experimental methods, with project work focused on the areas of metal oxide synthesis, electrochemistry, catalyst ink development, fuel cell testing and characterization. The project would be completed over two Budget Periods (BPs), with a Go/No-Go decision point in between each BP.
