The PEACE Short Stack at a Glance
Published: June 17, 2026
The PEACE project has taken an important step towards demonstrating next-generation green hydrogen production technologies with the successful construction and assembly of a three-cell pressurised alkaline electrolysis (AEL) short stack by Materials Mates Italia (MMI).
Integrating innovative, low-cost and scalable solutions developed throughout the project, the short stack represents a key stage in the development of a >50 kW pressurised alkaline electrolyser for green hydrogen production. This achievement highlights the strength of collaboration between PEACE’s industrial and academic partners and brings the project closer to delivering cost-effective and efficient hydrogen production technologies for future large-scale deployment.
