CO₂ electrolysis is undergoing a transition from lab-scale research to industrial deployment. However, the route from beaker chemistry to pilot plants remains challenging due to a fundamental mismatch between the objectives of exploratory research and industrial application. While academic efforts often focus on achieving champion performance metrics, industrial stakeholders prioritize reliability, durability, and scalability. Standardization plays a pivotal role in bridging this gap by enabling faster knowledge transfer, ensuring comparability of results, and accelerating the development of robust, industry-ready technologies.
eChemicles is pioneering the industrialization of CO₂ electrolysis technology and places significant emphasis on establishing standardized protocols both internally and at the community level. In this presentation, I will demonstrate how well-developed processes and standardized methodologies accelerate research and development in the CO₂ reduction field. Standardization—encompassing incoming material inspection, electrode preparation, and electrolyzer testing already at the R&D phase—contributes significantly to generating reproducible and reliable measurement data, which in turn accelerates performance imrpovement. I will discuss how this approach supports scale-up processes and evaluate whether the same standards can be applied across differently sized systems.
nanoGe is a prestigious brand of successful science conferences that are developed along the year in different areas of the world since 2009. Our worldwide conferences cover cutting-edge materials topics like perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, solar fuel conversion, surface science, catalysis and two-dimensional materials, among many others.
Previously nanoGe Spring Meeting (NSM) and nanoGe Fall Meeting (NFM), MATSUS is a multiple symposia conference focused on a broad set of topics of advanced materials preparation, their fundamental properties, and their applications, in fields such as renewable energy, photovoltaics, lighting, semiconductor quantum dots, 2-D materials synthesis, charge carriers dynamics, microscopy and spectroscopy semiconductors fundamentals, etc.
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
