CurrentThe “Bridging Models at Different Scales To Design New Generation Fuel Cells for Electrified Mobility (BLESSED)” project is funded by European Commission through the Horizon Europe Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Doctoral Networks.The BLESSED Industrial Doctoral Network (DN) is an international, multi-partner doctoral research-training network with the aim to prepare an international cohort of Doctoral Candidates (DCs) in the design process of the next generation of PEMFCs (Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells) for maximizing efficiency and longevity, with direct implications for clean energy and sustainable industry/mobility. The DN network brings world-class academic expertise in numerical modeling and simulation in electrochemistry, reacting flows, fluid mechanics, materials, optimization techniques, and ML industrial developers.The consortium, coordinated by Toyota Motor Europe NV, comprises universities, research institutions, and companies in the UK, Belgium, Austria, Serbia, Greece, France, Italy, Spain, and Germany.Grant Started: February 2023Total funding: EUR ~2.5 mil eurosFunding agency: European CommissionGrant reference: 101072578Principal investigators Igor StankovicCo-investigators Miljan Dasic
